Cannon County doesn’t have a middle school, although there has been considerable discussion about implementing one over the years.

However, the school system does have Middle Grades Sports. There are football, baseball and softball teams, mostly comprised of seventh and eighth graders at Woodbury Grammar School, which play against out-of-county competition.

Middle Grades Sports is one of the items on the agenda for the Cannon County Board of Education when it convenes for its regular monthly meeting Thursday (May 10).
