Choral Education
As a chorus director, Mr. Cooper is competitive yet student-centered, taking great effort to highlight and build each student’s strengths, re-assessing as necessary. He ensures that his classrooms and choral programs are a safe space for students that allows creativity and a sense of belonging. Mr. Cooper has a strong passion for the arts and loves to spark the same interests in youth choirs.
