About We Will Rock You - School Edition
Featuring more than 20 hit Queen songs including “Another One Bites the Dust,” “Bohemian Rhapsody,” “Killer Queen,” “We Will Rock You,” “Somebody To Love,” “We Are the Champions,” “Don’t Stop Me Now,” and many more, WE WILL ROCK YOU follows two revolutionaries as they try to save rock ‘n’ roll in a post-apocalyptic world. In an age where algorithms predict our every preference, WE WILL ROCK YOU is a musical for our time: a fist-pumping, foot-stomping anthem to individuality.
After a victorious 12-year reign and having rocked over 7 million people in a record-breaking run, WE WILL ROCK YOU played its final West End performance on May 31, 2014 and achieved the distinction of becoming the longest-running show ever at London’s Dominion Theatre. WE WILL ROCK YOU has been performed in 28 countries around the globe and seen by more than 16 million people.

Shady Side Academy Senior School
Shady Side Academy Senior School serves a coed population of approximately 480 high school students in grades 9-12, both day and boarding. Our 130-acre campus is located in the Fox Chapel suburb of Pittsburgh.
Challenging Academics
Following a proven college preparatory curriculum, our students immerse themselves in hands-on learning opportunities, take college-level courses, and establish meaningful relationships with faculty mentors. We take a 21st-century approach to learning; rather than rote memorization and standardized test preparation, our students learn by conducting research, writing persuasive arguments, thinking critically, honing their study habits and managing their free time – all skills they will need to succeed in college.
Keeping Balance
Our commitment to a balanced education means we offer a breadth of arts and athletics opportunities, supported by top-notch facilities. Students can also explore their passions in more than 50 different student clubs, such as Science Olympiad or service learning. Many students travel the world through our global and off-campus programs whether in one of four international exchange programs or as a Parkin Fellow.
Cultivating Respect and Leadership
The mutual respect faculty and students have for each other is exemplified in our culture. As a prep school in Pennsylvania, we believe students have a voice and deserve the opportunity to lead alongside teachers, and they serve as voting members of our academic, admissions and discipline committees. Faculty advisors meet weekly with their advisees, and teachers and students converse while walking around the quad or enjoying lunch together. We are a close-knit community, grounded in our five Guiding Principles of honesty, kindness, responsibility, respect and safety.
Boarding
Approximately 15 percent of students participate in our boarding program five or seven days a week. Whether playing studying together in the dorms or exploring Pittsburgh on weekends, boarders gain responsibility and independence, preparing them for college life.
College and Beyond
Our three full-time college counselors ensure students find a place where they will thrive. Our alumni achieve at top colleges and find success in a variety of professions around the world.
