Overbrook Environmental Education Center

Overbrook Youth Environmental Stewards​

​

The O'YES program is a new program at the Overbrook Center for high school students in Philadelphia in grades 9, 10, and 11 interested in stewardship and the environment.

​

Being an environmental steward not only provides the opportunity to positively benefit a student's community, it will teach students valuable lessons about the world around them and how to present their knowledge.

​

The O'YES program is a two-year program to which students commit. The first year includes a classroom component of 3-hour per week classes at the Overbrook Center on Thursdays 1PM to 4Pm - talk to your school administrators about details.

The second year will focus on application of a student's learning through job development and training in a 6-week intensive summer training and throughout the year in presentations and outreach.
