The Oswego Community Youth Orchestra seeks to challenge and nurture young, area musicians to strive for excellence, to explore their role in humanity and to contribute beauty to the community, through the study and performance of orchestral music. OCYO is directed by Cheryl Rogers, retired orchestra teacher from Oswego High School. Mrs. Rogers remains active in teaching by subbing in both Oswego City School District and Fulton City School District. Ms. Rogers has been recognized locally and nationally for her outstanding contributions to the community and music education. The Oswego Community Youth Orchestra thanks local area businesses and community members for their tireless support of our programs and the Arts in Oswego County. Special thanks to Fulton Alliance Church and Pastor Steve Nehlsen for welcoming us to perform, and to the string teachers of the Oswego and Fulton City School Districts.
