At first, he attended private Christian schools. Then Streater moved to public school, Leeds Middle School and Germantown High, both of which have since been closed. After graduation came 10 years “in the wilderness,” Streater said. Coming out of high school, he thought he wanted to be an architect, but that plan fizzled. He was dual enrolled at Community College of Philadelphia and Temple University, but found that the program wasn’t for him.
