In March, OHS was recognized as one of 13 schools across the country to be named a 2015 GRAMMY Signature School. The recognition cites U.S. public high schools that have demonstrated an outstanding commitment to music education during an academic school year and beyond.
On May 13, The Osbourn High School (OHS) Performing Arts Department was presented with the GRAMMY Foundation Signature Enterprise Award and a check for $5,500 presented by Tom Goldfogle, president of the DC Chapter of the Recording Academy for their profound efforts in music education.
The contribution will allow students greater access to music studies by incorporating the latest in music technology into the program at Manassas City Public Schools (MCPS). OHS teachers Austin Isaac (Orchestra), Dustin Faltz (Chorus), Bill Stevens (Band) and Stacey Rubach (Guitar Ensemble) were instrumental in achieving the recognition.
