Rob Changes the Culture of the Music Program

Mr. Rob Westerberg (also known as “Berg” by his students) is the Choral Director/Music Teacher at York High School. With the help of the community and administration, Mr. Westerberg made his vision to rebrand and transform its music program possible. He believes that music is not just a recreational program, but a fundamental one and encourages his students to feel the same.

Because of his vision, Performing Arts is now a graduation requirement, and believes that anyone can learn and benefit from musical education. His joy for music can be felt by all his students and stays with them as they become Alumni. Thank you, Mr. Westerberg for your 35 years (and counting) of going above and beyond for each of your students and congratulations on being named a 2021 ‘Teachers Who Wow’.
