Principal's message

Bailey Families,

We've had a fantastic start to the school year! Students are settling in well and becoming familiar with both the campus and classroom routines. Thank you for your patience as we’ve worked through levelling classes. Those changes should significantly slow down now that most of the leveling process is complete.

We’re excited to kick off our Fun Friday clubs next week; however, we still need nearly 200 consent forms to be turned in. As a reminder, three different consent forms are required for every student this year due to new legislation. These forms can be found in the "Important Links" section of this newsletter. If you’re unsure whether we’ve received your student’s forms, or if you’d prefer a paper copy, feel free to contact the front office at 512-414-4990.

In other news, Bailey Athletics is in full swing! Our Cross Country, Football, and Volleyball teams are working hard this season. Please check out the flyer below for our Athletics fundraiser. Any contribution is appreciated, and spreading the word helps us tremendously.

A huge thank you to Coach Avila for his outstanding leadership and for elevating both the athlete experience and our facilities here at Bailey. GO BEARS!

-Mr. Lancaster
