All students (grades Kindergarten to 12th) and their parents/guardians should review this document to become familiar with the rules and regulations that govern student behavior. School officials spend time during the first two weeks of school reviewing the information with students and highlighting major changes.
Students and their parents/guardians are responsible for knowing and understanding the information, including policies, procedures, and consequences for violating the Code of Conduct. The school will send home a Statement of Understanding with each student, to be signed by both the student and the parent/guardian and returned to the school.

UPDATES:
-
You will need to log in to your Home Access Center (HAC) account to complete the Annual Student Update form electronically for each child who lives with you by Tuesday, September 24, 2024. This process replaces the emergency form and several other permission forms and acknowledgments that are required each school year. Only one guardian needs to complete this process, which is critical to school operations. Once each child’s form is submitted, it will be marked complete in eSchoolPlus, our student information system. If you have any questions or concerns about HAC or the Annual Student Update form, please contact your child’s school. You can also find detailed directions on completing and submitting the Annual Student Update below.
The Youth Leadership Institute is a youth-led leadership development program designed to empower and engage youth, ages 11-13. YLI provides educational services such as conducting workshops and offering field trips related to STEM, environmental studies, and possible careers. Please see the workshop below for additional information.

- Back to School Night will occur on September 11th from 6:00 p.m.-7:30 p.m. The Back-to-School Night provides an excellent opportunity for parents to meet their child’s teachers in a more formal setting.

If you feel the need to meet with your child’s teachers, please schedule a conference through our guidance department. Please make sure that you have your child's schedule, which you can access via HAC.

History of Calvert Middle School
The new Calvert Middle School opened its doors August 2010 for its first school year. The school was built in a new location geographically north of Calvert High School with a view of the high school athletic fields from some windows. The location by car is 655 Chesapeake Boulevard, which is a newly extended road between the shopping center containing Giant. The new school is larger than the original containing 59 instructional rooms which includes Academic, Related Arts, computer labs, and small group instructional classrooms. Other areas include a media center, gymnasium, and cafeteria/stage.
The original Calvert Middle School was the oldest school building in Calvert County. It was originally built in 1947 and opened as a high school in 1949. It has been a middle school since 1973, incorporating grades six, seven, and eight. It was located in the heart of Calvert County's governmental seat in Prince Frederick, Maryland, at the intersection of State Route 4 and Dares Beach Road. It was demolished around 2010 but the playing fields continue to be used by the public.
