Oak Grove High School is an upcoming high school in Midway, North Carolina, set to open in fall 2017. The school will be part of the Davidson County Schools district and is to help with the overcrowded Ledford Senior and North Davidson High Schools.
History
Oak Grove first came to light in 2012, when the Davidson County Schools Board of Education approved a middle school in the Oak Grove area, to help with overcrowding at North Davidson and Ledford Middle schools. At the time, North Davidson High and Ledford Senior were past max student capacity. The long awaited news came when the board approved for a new high school to be built near the current Oak Grove Middle School, and a bid was formally accepted in November 2015, for Samet to start construction.[1]
Athletics
The school will be a part of the 2A Central Carolina Conference. The Grizzlies will have varsity teams in all sports but football, which will not have a varsity team till the 18-19 school year.
