This school is all about who you know.They single out kids and find every little thing they can to suspend them and then they send them off to schools that are not any better.They kids kids end up dropping out.I wonder what the real total is for drop outs are for this school?I will never tell any of my friends to send their kids to this school.

My children are in 6th and 8th grade and have been going to Baker School since Kindergarten. I have never had any problems with the school. The teachers have all been caring and willing to go the extra mile to help with any issues. It is a small town school with a lot of community support. All of the staff is friendly and my kids enjoy attending this school.

This is the most backwards school I've ever had the pleasure of dealing with. I've got two children attending this school (2nd and 5th) and Baker is without a doubt the worst school! One morning I went into pick up my boys for a dentist appointment and it took them 35 minutes to "find" my 7 year old! Ridiculous that they have no idea as to what the heck is going on and where their students are. The teachers are either way over involved in what the kids are or aren't during, like sending home notes because my 10 year didn't eat his entire sandwich at lunch, or not involved enough, like turning the other cheek to a bunch of older kids stealing his lunch 3 days later! If you looking to move to this area, look into putting your kids in a different school, seriously!

My son is a student here and is actively participating in the oncampus dual enrollment classes through NWFSC that are taught during the swchool day. The teachers of all his classes are the best I have ever seen and the family atmosphere of a kindergarten through 12th grade school if phenominal.

I'm an alumni. I graduated from baker in 2004.. I attended baker K-12 and I loved it.. I knew all the teachers and they knew me. They made it a point to see that I succeeded. I also was in a ton of extracurricular activities. I am now graduating from college with a BA in psychology and sociology.

I think that this is one of the best school that I have ever attended it is such a close-knit community. I am currently in tenth grade and attended baker for 1 year. Mr. Shipp and Mrs. Hayden are wonderful. The teachers are some of the best you will find anywhere. I love this school.

My son is a Freshman and this his first year at Baker. We are very pleased with the ROTC program and the accountability the coaches require for students to partcipate in the sports program. I am very impressed with the principal and vice-principal and the committment to educate the children.
