The District encourages all families to talk with their students regarding the dangers associated with vaping or drug usage and to discuss the implications of this new law with your children, emphasizing the importance of adhering to school policies and laws for their own welfare and for the betterment of the school community as a whole. Your cooperation and support in ensuring that our district remains a safe and healthy educational environment for our students is deeply appreciated.


The CTMS PTA Spirit Wear Shop closes on August 31, 2023. Orders will be delivered to school in September. Get your orders in now to show your wolf spirit throughout the school year!


7:28 a.m. Update: Power to CTMS has been restored. Our maintenance teams are checking all systems, but we plan for the school day to proceed as normal. Phones will be routed back to CTMS.

Cross Timbers Middle School is currently without power. District facilities teams are onsite and determined that this is an ONCOR issue. ONCOR has been made aware and is working to expedite a response.
Telephone and internet services are also temporarily unavailable to our campus. In the meantime, calls will be routed to the district’s administration building.
We are making adjustments to allow students to continue on a normal operating schedule and will communicate when power is restored.
