SUSD+10

My name is Chip Cheney and I am from Heber in Northern Arizona. Music has always been a big part of my life. My father is the string orchestra teacher in my town so I have grown up around music. The main instruments I play are viola and piano. I have been playing the piano and viola for about nineteen years. I attended college here in Thatcher at EAC and then went on to UofA for my Bachelors. I taught 6-8 orchestra in Tucson for a year and then went to BYU for two years for my Master's Program. I am currently finishing up my Master's program and I am very excited to be a part of Safford Unified School District. I am looking forward to contributing to the great musical heritage that has been a part of the Gila Valley.
