Try with the following file:

#+STARTUP: overview

* Chores
:PROPERTIES:
:VISIBILITY: all
:END:
** NEXT Brush Teeth in Day
   SCHEDULED: <2020-10-22 Thu +1d>
** NEXT Brush & Floss Teeth at Night
   SCHEDULED: <2020-10-21 Wed +1d>
* Math
  math
* English
  english
* Geology
  geology

Save the file, close it and reopen it: I believe that will do what you want.

Note that:

• the PROPERTIES drawer must NOT be commented out (as it was in your example).
• VISIBILITY was spelled incorrectly.
• VISIBILITY values are: folded, children, content, and all - in particular, they are NOT the same as the values required in the #+STARTUP: keyword line. See Initial Visibility.
• the #+STARTUP: keyword setting is global for the file - it is good practice to put it at the top of the file. And note how it is spelled: the #+ prefix for keywords is essential.
