The participants were selected among hundreds of nominees for the Symphony Strings, one of two orchestras representing nearly 60 schools across the state.
This was an incredibly unique opportunity for our orchestra students to experience a high level of musical development and performance with other students throughout the state. Oskaloosa is fortunate to have student musicians who go above and beyond in their pursuit of excellence every day. Bravo to each of them, and thank you for representing Oskaloosa so well!
