Bailey School has excellent teachers at every grade level who genuinely support their students' success, provided the students are willing to put in the effort. The school environment is nurturing, respectful, and encouraging. As a parent of a child who had to transfer from a private school due to b
Posted by a parent on 11/3/2025I've dealt with some very good teachers at this school, BUT the administration, mainly the ineffectiveness of Principal McCormick, is what makes this one of most lacking schools in the district.
Posted by a parent on 2/28/2020Overall this is the worst school experience I've ever had. My child will definitely be removed from here.

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am so torn on this school, the teaching staff is great, but they keep leaving the school, being made to leave to other schools, or changing from grade to grade constantly. There is no stability for the kids and I'm sure the teachers do not feel great about it either. I grew up in bayonne and went to several schools here and never had issues at any of the schools I went to, but now, being a family member, hearing/seeing what the administration is doing to the teachers and, by extension, the students is really discouraging. They're going to lose all their good teachers if they don't fix this soon.Other Review2y ago - Henry E. Harris No. 1 Elementary School
