School Overview

Cedar Middle sits in Hesperia, a sprawling High Desert community where families tend to put down roots for the affordability and space that the Inland Empire's outer edges offer. Academically, the school faces some real challenges — math and science scores in particular land in the lower fifth of California middle schools — so families who prioritize strong core academics may want to look closely at what additional support is available, whether through tutoring, enrichment programs, or district resources. That said, for families already rooted in this part of the High Desert, getting involved early and staying connected with teachers can make a meaningful difference in the middle school experience here.
