Overbrook Educational Center, a K through 8 on Lansdowne Avenue in West Philadelphia, has 278 students.: Green wants to use the money to help Conwell become a “STEAM” school, focusing on science, technology, engineering, arts, and math. Planned are a new multimedia lab and introduction to engineering course for students — the money would pay for cameras, lenses, 3D printers, graphic design software, green screens, microphones, and audio software.
Cook-Wissahickon, which educates 428 students in kindergarten through eighth grade, is on East Salaignac Street in the city’s Wissahickon neighborhood.Rozanski wants to use the Lindback money to advance the goals of the school’s Team for Change, increasing access to multicultural library materials.
