Preface

The Challey School of Music (CSoM) strives to enable every student to reach their potential as a musician and a well-rounded human being.

• The voice-choral faculty and staff commit to doing their best at all times and expect the same from students.
• Students must develop a strong work ethic to progress in their studies. The following habits are critical in helping students achieve their best and alleviate undue stress:
  • Regularly attend all classes, lessons, and rehearsals.
  • Learn repertoire for voice lessons and choir in a timely manner.
  • Complete and submit homework on time.
• Communication is key to student success:
  • Check email regularly for notifications from instructors.
  • Inform teachers and/or advisor of any problems.
• Cooperation and collaboration are lifetime skills needed by musicians that are encouraged and valued at the CSoM.
