About MRs. Bailey

Welcome to another school year at Rock Springs Elementary! My name is Mrs. Lize Bailey, and this will be my fourteenth year of teaching at RSE- and all of those years have been spent teaching first grade. I graduated in May 2011 from East Tennessee State University with a B.S. degree in Early Childhood Education, and I have a Master's Degree and Educational Specialist Degree from Union Commonwealth University. 

Prior to my teaching career, I worked as an instructional assistant at Weaver Elementary, a kindergarten interim teacher at Indian Springs Elementary, and a first grade interim teacher at Kingsley Elementary. I am from the Colonial Heights area- I graduated from Sullivan South High School in 2006. 

A little about me... I am married to Mr. Nathan Bailey. Nathan is the Associate CTE Director at Dobyns-Bennett High School. We have one daughter, Maggie. She is our pride and joy, and we love watching her grow and learn new things. We have two dogs- Ryder and Luna Jolene, and a cat- Tiger. 

We love traveling, cooking, photography, gardening, hiking, kayaking, spending time with our family and friends, and our favorite thing to do now is experiencing all of Maggie's "firsts" with her.

If you need to reach me, please call (423) 354-1380 during my planning or you may contact me via e-mail at lize.bailey@sullivank12.net.

I am excited for a fun year with my new First-Grade Foxes! :)
