Summary

Baileywick Road Elementary is a public elementary school in Raleigh, North Carolina, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 389 students. The school is part of the Wake County Schools district, which is ranked 60th out of 242 districts in the state.

Academically, Baileywick Road Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of North Carolina elementary schools over the past 10 years. The school's performance on state assessments is generally below the Wake County and North Carolina averages across all grade levels and subjects. However, the school's Gifted and Talented students perform exceptionally well, ranking in the top 5% of North Carolina elementary schools. In contrast, certain student subgroups, such as African American, Hispanic, English Language Learners, and Economically Disadvantaged students, perform significantly worse, ranking in the bottom 10-20% of the state.

Baileywick Road Elementary has a relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 36.91% to 62.11% over the past few years. This is significantly higher than nearby schools like Brassfield Elementary (9.72%) and Leesville Road Elementary (32.04%), which have lower percentages of economically disadvantaged students. The school's spending per student is higher than some nearby schools, but its student-teacher ratio is lower, suggesting that the school may be facing unique challenges that are not present at the higher-performing schools in the same district.

If you like your child to be punched, kicked or hit with no contact then this school is for you! The teacher to student ratio is a lie. The classes are approximately 20 students per teacher in the lower grades and increase in the higher grades. Students are given work to complete themselves while the teacher tries to catch up other students. Teachers that work there send their children to other schools and so do others that live in the neighborhoods “assigned” to this school. The principal is abysmal at best and doesn’t respond to parents. Notice all positive reviews are from 2017 or prior. Avoid this school at all costs! Close Quote

We've been here for three years and so far so good for a public school! Close Quote

Funny how all of the recent reviews are within days of each other - wink wink.

Highly noticeable - Mixed communications from administrative staff in the front office- some of the staff are wonderful and very professional - others are clearly bothered to see parents in the building. Other problems - Lack of information about what goes on the classroom. Little to no information on the school website or in communications with school staff or teachers. Yes it is a smaller school and the vast majority of the teachers and staff are extremely nice. But concerns from parents can be met with stonewalled behavior from teachers and staff.
YOU will have to be extra proactive to know what is going on with your child's class and daily class activities. Compared to other area schools, little to no information is displayed on the website.

The school itself is in need of maintenance repairs and upkeep - similar to other, established wake county schools that are sadly starting to show neglect and disrepair. The money seems to follow new neighborhoods and new schools.

Overall the mood here seems apathetic - it could be much better. Close Quote
