CCDS Welcomes Mr. Chris Stoffer
Development and Admissions Director

I had the pleasure of growing up in Canton, Ohio and experiencing all the rich heritage this area has to offer. As one of five boys, I was always active in school events and sports. After graduating from GlenOak High School, I went on to attend Malone University where I graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in History and was a member of the football team. Upon graduating from college, I had the opportunity to work with middle school and high school students on the athletic field as a coach with Plain Local schools for two years. This experience lead to a position at Herzing University as an Admissions Advisor where I have worked for the last nine years, helping students reach their educational goals. I hope to bring my passion for helping and working with students to Canton Country Day to add to the already fantastic staff and legacy that has been a part of this community for many years. Currently, I reside in Canton where I am engaged to my beautiful fiancee' Desiree. We have two dogs.

I look forward to working with you and the team at Canton Country Day.
