At Bailey’s our purpose is to help each student reach his or her maximum potential across academic areas; become a responsible member of communities and groups; and achieve self-awareness and self-direction as an individual. Towards this end, we support each student to continually grow and thrive in his or her ability to understand, express, inquire, connect, and hope.

2008 Virginia School Census
The 2008 Virginia School Census will begin on March 1st and end on July 15th. This census, which occurs every three years and is mandated by the commonwealth of Virginia, determines the fair distribution of state sales tax revenues throughout the state. The census counts every child through age nineteen (19) whether or not the child attends public or private school or is home-schooled. For each child counted between the ages of 5 and 19, approximately $3,000 will be returned to our schools. For further information about the census, users can go to http://www.fcps.edu/census

Two Art Reach Projects at Bailey’s
Notice the beautiful murals on our school walls?
We are ready to begin the second annual mural arts project.
We are in need of visual artists who will mentor a class on creating a mural.
Are you available, or do you know an artist who can volunteer his/her time?
This year we are launching a cloth story project.
We are in need of volunteers who are handy with sewing, appliqué or embroidery . Students will be interviewing their families on stories of perseverance.
The volunteers will teach the children how to turn their stories into works of art in cloth.
