CHORAL DEPARTMENT   Skills learned through the discipline of music can have a positive effect on a student's life. The challenges met, the communication skills needed, and the cognitive skills developed will provide the student with not only a lesson, but a life skill.    A musician must make music, an artist must paint, a poet must write if he is to be ultimately at peace with himself. What one can be, one must be. --Abraham Moslow
