Cedarview Middle School is a dual-track English/French immersion middle school in the Barrhaven neighbourhood of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. It is part of the Ottawa-Carleton District Board (OCDSB). Cedarview was opened in 1994. The building is characterized by its bright blue roof.[according to whom?] As of the 2023-2024 school year, the principal is Shelley Neill and the vice-principal is Jennifer Stadler. The school is also home to a Grade 7 and 8 Congregated Gifted class and an autism program.[citation needed]
Cedarview holds a world record for Largest Simultaneous Yo-yo, which they broke on June 8, 2006.[1] On June 6, 2006, the record was attempted by the entire staff and students, and the attempt was successful, beating the previous record by a mere six people. The record was featured in the Canadian edition of the Guinness Book of World Records 2008, in the upper right corner of page 7.Students have also participated in the Annual Cedarview Middle School Walkathon and raised over $96,000 toward help for adults with multiple disabilities. Grade 8 teacher Barbara Troutman was awarded the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board's 2007 Community Award for her role in organising the event to raise funds and awareness within the school and community.[2][3][4]
