What is that giant statue when we enter Overbrook?

The main entrance to Overbrook HS has a great replica sculpture of The Nike of Samothrace.  The Nike is the Greek Goddess of Victory.  The original sculpture (pictured below) is currently located in the Louvre Museum in Paris, France.  Click on this link to read more about it: Nike of Samothrace

Check out this video of the Louvre Museum.  This is also where the famous Mona Lisa painting is held.
