Congratulations to Alex Marchese on an excellent performance with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra at Heinz Hall on Tuesday night! This year's Student Side-by-Side with the PSO included students from 30 high schools across southwestern Pennsylvania and two schools in West Virginia. Additionally, Alex was selected to share in an on-stage interview with the Conductor of the PSO during the concert. Alex represented Oak Glen with distinction. Way to go Alex! We are so proud of you!

The WV All-State Band and WV All-State Chorus presented spectacular performances on Saturday, March 2nd, 2024 on the Clay Center stage in Charleston. After two days of intense rehearsals, both ensembles performed challenging works including collegiate-level music, rousing the crowds to standing ovations. Students Alex Marchese (tuba), Madelyn Thompson (clarinet), Ella Paras (soprano 1), and Alexa Shaw (Alto 1) represented Oak Glen High School and Hancock County with distinction!
