The warm, welcoming atmosphere is what draws a parent in. Student work is on the walls, teachers, administration, staff members monitoring the halls with smiles on their faces, an inviting place to be. Top notch programs for today's highly competitive work force available as early as 6th grade. Bair Middle School offers these types of programs and so much more for each and every child.
