Used to go to this school (This review is from a student that has attended this school, but is not there currently. That's why I put other). Only thing I can say about it is that there is; constant vaping in the stalls, constant fights with kids getting jumped if they said something they didn't like, and the school counselors DON'T DO ANYTHING. I'm going to give you a story from my life that happened here. One time I was sitting around, joking with my friends, when some dude grabs me and puts me in a chokehold. Now I'm smaller than the other kids (Still am) which makes me a vulnerable target for literally anyone. Anyway, while I'm in a chokehold, I try to fight back with my elbows and this kid is dragging me across the ag science room, and when this kid is done with me, everyone laughs and I go back to my table crying and humiliated, and guess what. The teacher didn't even notice and asked me why I was crying, long story short, the kid got suspended for like 3 days. Another thing is I was bullied and tormented by many of the kids in my new classroom (I was moved classrooms after the story) and I tried to go to the guidance counselor and tell them about what was happening. Turns out one of the counselors likes to do things "the old fashioned way" and calls them in to chat with them and to tell each other what we feel. After we got back to the classroom, I was known as the snitch, so that was great. The only thing good about that place was one of the teachers and my friends. Sadly the one good teacher retired a couple years ago. Anyway, if you value your child's mental health at all don't send them to this school unless you want them to get jumped by 15 different kids.

My child received an amazing education, as well as positive support and encouragement from his teachers. He went from being a so-so, disinterested student to High Honor Roll and award winner in two short quarters. My only regret is that we didn't find this school earlier. The staff and administration hold these kids accountable and they are firm, but they truly love these kids and love being educators. It shows. Mr. Wallace (the Principal) has turned Bailey to an A school because he makes it all about the kids. Ms. Lovelace, Ms. O'Steen and Mr. Land are absolutely outstanding teachers and I cannot thank them enough. Thanks to them, I have a child who is now excited about learning and knows he has what it takes to succeed!

If you're considering sending your kid here to the IB program, think really, really hard. Do your research. The principal has left, AND many teachers are leaving. My kid has 6 classes and 4 teachers are gone or will be leaving. As a senior, in the 4 years, there has been so much teacher turnover. This place is a joke!!!And, administration now is horrible. Had an emergency and had to sign my kid out, NO ONE!! was willing to help. NOT ONE PERSON except for may the kid who answered the phone. Such a disappointment!
