The responsibility of CGMS is to provide quality leadership and successful instructional efforts within a safe school environment conducive to learning. Cedar Grove Middle School actively seeks to involve the community, parents, our partners in education and other stakeholders, sharing the responsibility for providing each student with the opportunity to excel with pride. Our efforts are a testimony to our commitment for helping all students become life-long learners. |
| Cedar Grove Middle School empowers our students through technology and performance-based standards to become integral members of society. |
| Cedar Grove Middle School provides a rigorous and interactive standards-based curriculum that maximizes our students' academic potential through the shared involvement of all stakeholders. |
| As the first DeKalb County School built specifically as a middle school, we are a prototype for all the newer middle schools. Several outdoor classrooms are located throughout the campus including the Arboretum, which aids students in learning about an estimated 110 plant species. Cedar Grove was named a National Demonstration School in 2004, one of only 11 nation wide. |
