Carly Grandner ’14 fosters community through music in her role as a choir teacher at Davies High School in Fargo, North Dakota.

“Concordia is a place full of passionate and enthusiastic, wonderful educators, and some of the best things I learned were just by building relationships with my professors or being in activities or organizations. There’s a lot about education that you can’t learn from a textbook.”

— Carly Grandner ’14

Sadie Cheslak ’17 won the Harold Stark Prize for fourth place overall at the 2024 National Association of Teachers of Singing finals concert, which took place at the Manhattan School of Music in New York City in January.

“Concordia provided such a nurturing and encouraging environment to explore my passion for music and performance," she said. "Holly and Stephen Sulich, my coach, knew before I did that opera was where I was heading. I can’t thank them enough for helping me develop my voice and artistry, and in turn, to grow as a person during my time at Concordia.”
