Open Quote Bair Middle School, located in Sunrise, FL offers many programs to cater to the needs of the diverse population including; Linking Education and Employment Outcomes (LEEO), Junior Advanced and Digital Academy (JADA), Gifted Education in Mathematics (GEM), Science Technology Engineering and Math (STEM), SECME after school Club, and Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps (JROTC).

We live in a “data driven" society that is directed mainly by the use of multimedia. Careers in technology and or technology related are the most desired, sought after high-wage, high-demand careers. Bair middle school, is ensuring that their students are prepared for success in the technology field. Mr. Clock, who runs the LEEO program at Bair Middle School, had 95% of his first cohort of students SY 14-15 successfully pass an adult industry certification exam, and earn their industry certification in PowerPoint. Being that LEEO is a new program to Bair, that these were strictly sixth graders who participated, and that the actual test is really an "adult" assessment, this was a spectacular accomplishment. The program is now in the second year of implementation. The first cohort of students now have PowerPoint Certification and 97% of them have Microsoft certification, as well. The second cohort of students SY 15-16 have completed their PowerPoint Certification with a 98% success rate.

For SY 14-15 100% of students in the JADA program completed at least 1 online class and many students earned additional high school credits. Although SY 15-16 is still happening, the same students from the 14-15 SY are now working on completing their 2nd online class and for some it is their 3rd or even more online class. In addition this same group of students, 7th graders now, are working on completing high school classes not online, right on Bair's campus to include; Biology, Algebra I, and Spanish I. Bair is the only middle school in Broward to offer this unique acceleration opportunity that can be completed at each student's unique learning pace.

Bair just became the first middle school in Sunrise, FL to be a magnet middle school. Starting SY 16-17, Bair Middle School will be offering Broward County Public School Students the option of being in a Montessori Magnet.

Open Quote My child is happy going to Bair MIddle School and I am happy sending them there. I was unsure at first because of things I had heard in the past...the thing is all those things I heard are from the past! Currently Bair is a B school and the admisitration and staff are conintually improving, doing it what it takes and reaching for the A! They have great academic programs with STEM, LEEO and JADA to offer along with sports, clubs and growing parental involvement. I would recommend Bair to anyone with a middle school aged child.

Open Quote This school has made a significant change. Change in grade, staff, attitude, outlook, expectations, academics, and so much more. The school is worth attending, the courses and or programs offered at Bair Middle, hands down, beat all middle schools in Broward County. See for yourself, stop in, take a tour, meet the staff, you won't regret for one minute that you did!!!! Close Quote

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
