HILLCREST HAPPENINGS
Embrace Civility
Terry McVey, Principal
Peter Schmidt, Assistant Principal
Denise Kelley, Assistant Principal
Mr. Michael Thorne, principal of Catonsville Middle School, has invited the parents of all 5th
graders who are to attend CMS to the Grade 5 Parent Information Night on Wednesday,
May 6, in the CMS gymnasium. Since we will have already taken the children to the middle
school at the end of April, the parent night is for parents only. This is your opportunity to tour
the building, to learn about the similarities and differences between elementary and middle
school, and to ask any questions you might have. You will meet the administrative team,
counseling department chairperson, school nurse, 6th grade dean, PTSA president, and student
service-learning coordinator. The doors will open at 6:30 pm, and until 6:50 p.m., members of
the CMS National Junior Honor Society will be standing by to take you on a guided tour of the
school. At 7 pm, the main program will begin in the gymnasium. Typically, the program lasts for
approximately 75 minutes. So please mark your calendar for the CMS Grade 5 Parent
Information Night on Wednesday, May 6. Catonsville Middle School is located at 2301 Edmondson Avenue between the Old Frederick Road traffic circle and the Trolley Trail to Ellicott City.
If you have any questions about the event, please contact the main office at Catonsville Middle
School at410-887-0803.
