About

Bailey's Elementary has an amazing array of programs to meet students' needs and help them thrive. As one of the two elementary magnet schools in our district, we have both classroom teachers and specialized educators that focus on the sciences, the arts, and technology. In science, we have outdoor classroom programs, a dedicated science lab, and teachers that are constantly looking for ways to help students learn through scientific processes and resources. In arts, we have programs focused on music, visual arts, drama, and creative movement. Since 1999 Bailey’s has been in partnership with the Kennedy Center as part of the Changing Education Through the Arts Program (CETA). As a result of this partnership, our teachers seek innovative ways to integrate the arts throughout the curricula. In addition, our programs are supported by the latest technologies including laptops, document cameras, SMART Boards, and iPads.

Julianne Nava

ESOL teacher

I am excited to be a part of the TFA family and join the movement to solve education inequity in this country and provide all students with a quality education. I'm fortunate enough to be selected from a nationwide talent applicant pool to join a teacher corps comprised of leaders who commit a minimum of two years to teach in high need public schools. This summer I will be participating in an intensive skill and knowledge development program aiming to increase student achievement as well as a comprehensive professional development program including seminars, discussion groups, workshops, and content and professional learning communities specific to teaching license areas. I can't wait for my first year with Teach for America.
