A direct supervisor from your current summer job.
Why: they can speak to your recent, job-relevant performance, specific duties, work habits, reliability, and growth — and they directly supervised you. The others are weaker: a middle-school teacher isn’t a professional reference, a one-day volunteer supervisor can’t attest to sustained performance, and the CEO is useful only if they directly supervised you (otherwise they may not know your day-to-day work).
