Catherine Hilsee

Catherine is the assistant in Bonnie Frost and Christina Cubera’s Kindergarten classroom. She works with Bonnie and Christina to create an engaging, fun, active learning environment where students are known and loved.

A longtime Park parent and a former Parents’ Association Grade Representative, Catherine began substitute teaching at Park in 2019–20. Through the 2020–21 school year, she served as a co-teacher in the Kindergarten, first grade, and second grade. In the fall of 2021, she started her role as Kindergarten assistant. 

Catherine loves seeing her students grow and learn, build relationships, and discover things about the world — and themselves — that are new and unfamiliar. 

Catherine holds a B.A. in Anthropology from the University of Maryland, College Park. She and her husband, Director of Communications Pete Hilsee, are the parents to a Park student in the Class of 2025.
