Cedar Bluff Middle School, or CBMS, is situated right next door to the neighborhood’s Cedar Bluff Elementary School. This proximity is especially convenient for parents of children in both schools.
Known as the home of the Giants, this Knoxville, Tennessee public school serves more than 600 students in grades six through eight.
Students at CBMS have access to a broad selection of athletics and fine arts clubs, including basketball, cheer, dance, softball, orchestra, and vocal music. Student interest clubs include robotics, broadcast club, yearbook, and Dungeons and Dragons.
CBMS is supported by an active Parent Teacher Student Association that works for the well-being of all three Cedar Bluff schools. One of the most significant PTSA events is the annual spring fling, which takes place on the Cedar Bluff campus. The spring fling includes a silent auction, bounce houses, egg hunts, and other fun activities.
Following eighth grade at Cedar Bluff Middle School, most students will attend high school at Hardin Valley Academy, though some students are zoned for Bearden High School instead.
