Oley Valley High School - History

History

The current Oley Valley High School was built in 1961 adjacent to what is now the Oley Valley School District Administration building, which was formerly the Oley Valley K-5 building until 1993.

The high school was renovated in 1981 to have a joint middle school. In 2002, a new middle school was built and the left-over wing incorporated into the high school, primarily as the social studies wing.

The school district superintendent was Jeffrey Zackon until he died while abroad during the German class trip on April 20, 2011 while in the Swiss alps. The Oley Valley School District's new superintendent is Tracy Shank.
