(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Can we actually get a parent's review of this school?
Other than two kids complaining about having to follow the rules of the school, and the poor food quality, these reviews are useless.
Sad fact is Public High School food is almost always one step above generic dog food.

- I agree Overbrook is similar to a prison. Alot of the schools in the area of Overbrook are complete garbage. If you want your kid to get a real education (and not get shot in the process) then spend the money to get them into either a private school or just stay away from Lindenwold/Pine Hill/Clementon etc because the way the schools are run are a joke. I'm glad I got away from Overbrook real fast. Move to a town like Hammonton, Haddonfield, Voorhees etc. where yeah the taxes are higher but you don't live in the crap-hole of New Jersey.

(2 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Overbrook is similar to a prison... There are cameras in every hall way and not all of the bathrooms are open to students because there aren't enough teachers to watch over them. You have to wear a uniform (orange/navy/white polos with black or tan dickies) with a belt and you have to tuck your shirt in, if any of these are violated then you get a detention, if you skip your detention you get suspended. Also, Mcdonalds has better food quality than our school, especially when it comes to the meat so in my opinion if you can send your kid to another school in the area (other than Lindenwold) then that would be your best bet.
