The faculty and staff at Bayvale are making a significant difference in the lives of children each and every day. These caring and charamactic folks are touching lives and opening the hearts and minds of students. Thank you for your hard work and above all, for teaching them the life-long lessons that will enable them to lead productive lives.

My son only went here for one semester. Only because we are military and were PCSing to NC. He ended up with a good teacher so our experience was good enough. But he had to miss a week cause his Grandmother passed away, and they withdrew him from school. Because they did not want the absences on record. I thought it was pretty stupid. But other than that I just didn't like the area it was in.
