Who are Overland leaders?
Overland leaders are highly motivated, energetic and caring people who love to work with students and want to share their enthusiasm for the outdoors, their commitment to community service or their love of language and culture with young people. Most importantly, each Overland leader is a wonderful role model. Since Overland leaders are much closer in age than parents are to their children, Overland students see in their leaders elements of themselves a few healthy, cheerful, focused years farther down the road. Critical lessons of cooperation, consideration, selflessness, teamwork, determination, perseverance and pride are transmitted naturally. (And without making a big deal about it, either. All Overland leaders are equipped with a sturdy sense of humor.) No wonder 95 percent of our leaders receive top marks from students and parents!
