2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageLanier High School is more than a school, it's a community. Parents, community, and alumni frequently support the school with various endeavors. Majority of the teaching staff focus on developing the "whole child" which is critical to the educational, psychological, and emotional development of a student. Keep up the good work Lanier family!Other Review9y ago - Power Apac School

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageGreat School’s assessment of this school makes me question using Great Schools as a resource. We have had an enormously positive experience. We have two children here. The principal is responsive, the school is diverse in every way, the community is inclusive and welcoming. Both our children test well and make progress. Both our children love the school and their teachers. I saw someone give the school one star noting carline. It’s the same carline as carline everywhere. We recommend this school and we believe in what it stands for.Parent Review3y ago - Bailey Middle APAC

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMoving back to MS was a difficult choice, considering the education disparities between Jackson and Dallas, TX. Yet, Bailey has been a breath of fresh air...both in teacher and family engagement. They've championed several exciting events for the kids, while simultaneously stressing the importance of educational excellence.Parent Review7mo ago
