Board of Trustees

Per CMA’s Bylaws, the stewardship of the school is entrusted to the Board of Trustees. The Board is voted on by CMA’s parents and legal guardians (known as Associates). They are responsible for the school’s governing policies, its fiscal health and its mission. Committees support the work of the Board and the school.

The Board consists of seven (7) voting Trustees including the President, Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary and three At-Large Trustees. To assist the Trustees in carrying out the duties of the Board and to be a liaison between the Board and CMA’s parents and legal guardians, the Trustees appoint a minimum of five (5) non-voting Advisors known as the Advisory Council who are also expected to participate in Board meetings. CMA Associates and community members are more than welcome to attend Board meetings as honored guests.

In all matters, the Board must consider the best interests of the school over their own interests, or over those of any constituent group in the CMA Community.
