I've been at Overbrook high school since 9th grade. Overbrook is an historical school with a lot of back round. A lot of great people came from my school. WE are mainly African american base school. I learned a lot of things at this school i learned how to understand the early stages of adulthood. A lot of respectable people from philly stopped by to pay there dues and respect to my school.
