Cheliss joined our community as an independent contractor, bringing her expertise in financial operations to support the school’s vital behind-the-scenes operations. In her role, she oversees tuition, billing, internal payroll, and general financial management, ensuring everything runs smoothly for our school. While she manages the numbers, Cheliss is on-site a few days a week and works closely and directly with our families. Known for her warmth and accessibility, she is always ready to assist families with account questions, navigate payment plans, and make the financial aspect of enrollment clear and stress-free. Outside of her work with CMS, Cheliss enjoys teaching dance locally, writing when she gets a chance, camping all summer, and enjoying life with her three boys—all of whom are proud CMS alumni.
