It was a bumpy ride I would say, the school made me feel like I had to be someone else in order to fit in but after learning my story was going to have a halt after 7th-grade year, I have finally found my school Cedar Grove Middle School, and that school is a 5-star school, and it's in supply N.C near the beach how peaceful it felt to know that I Found TRUE friends caring teachers excepted 1 but whatever, Grandview is still growing and even though I'm going to become a high schooler after this year, I know for a fact that when I'm married and move back I will definitely send my children to the school (for like one year I like the Beach!)

I've visited this school many times as the significant other of one of the teachers. I completely agree that this school is run like a tight ship, but the kids that it produces are some of the best in the county. If you want an administration that doesn't care about the actions of students, go somewhere else. Grandview is full of hands-on administrators and teachers who truly care about the attitudes, manners, and educations that the students are receiving. When I have children, Grandview and Dr. Howerton are the exact experience I want my kids to have.

This school is run very tight - silent halls, ISS for incomplete homework, or missing a problem and "double ISS or Afterschool time" if the principal just happents to see a student in silent lunch. There is big trouble for the most minor of offenses. Great place for students facing behavior issues and overachievers with 0 problems but, a nervous or shy student or those who mess up sometimes would struggle.
