Dear Saints Community,
Welcome to Cedar Grove Middle, home of the Saints! It is with great enthusiasm that I look forward to serving you in my role as principal. Our school is diverse and full of energy, a place where every student is part of the Saints family and can experience success. With high levels of instruction and a faculty that cares, we accept and embrace the challenge of educating, nurturing, and motivating all students.
It is our vision to develop in our students the academic skills and character necessary for success in high school, college, the workforce, and life. Our mission is to provide a quality educational experience that meets individual needs and is supported by the home and community. In addition, we are committed to building strong relationships with both our students and community. We will continue our journey of listening and learning in an effort to better serve each and every one of our students.
We encourage our community to be actively involved in the educational process and embrace open communication between you and the school. We want the best for our students and ask that you work with us as valuable team members. With you, we will work hard to make the most of your child's experience at Cedar Grove Middle.
We will continue working hard to provide the highest level of support, provided by a staff that cares about students. We will look to communicate in a variety of ways. This includes phone calls, email, school messenger, Class Dojo, text messages, parent portal, and other avenues. Please do not forget to utilize our school's website, as there are a variety of resources that can be used to answer questions and provide support.
This school year, please get to know our amazing staff members that are here to support our students and families. In addition, our counseling department is here to serve and will support students in developing a plan to assist them as they learn and grow during their time here at Cedar Grove Middle.
We are excited about all the amazing things our students will accomplish and the contributions they will make to our school and in our community. We will continue to exhibit Big Saints Energy; utilizing a mindset of DeKalb County H-Pride initiative. I greatly appreciate your support this school year... GO SAINTS!
Principal James Holloway
