Summary

Cedar Grove Middle is a public middle school located in Supply, North Carolina, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 457 students. The school is part of the Brunswick County Schools district, which is ranked 96 out of 242 school districts in North Carolina and is rated 3 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Cedar Grove Middle has consistently ranked in the bottom half of North Carolina middle schools, ranging from 366 out of 784 in 2022-2023 to 493 out of 773 in 2024-2025. The school's rating by SchoolDigger has also been relatively low, fluctuating between 2 and 3 stars out of 5 over the past several years. While the school has performed well for African American students, it has struggled with Hispanic and White student performance, ranking in the bottom half of the state. Cedar Grove Middle's test scores in Mathematics, Reading, and Science have generally been below the Brunswick County Schools and North Carolina state averages, with particularly low performance in 7th and 8th grade Mathematics.

Compared to the nearby Town Creek Middle and South Brunswick Middle schools, Cedar Grove Middle's performance is generally lower, with higher statewide rankings and better test scores in most subject areas. However, Cedar Grove Middle's student-teacher ratio is lower than the nearby schools, suggesting a potential focus on smaller class sizes. The school's extremely high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, consistently above 99% in recent years, indicates significant socioeconomic challenges faced by the school's population, which may be contributing to its lower academic performance.
