Jennifer Bailey

Middle School Principal

Mrs. Bailey and her family have recently moved from Atlanta, GA to Arizona. She is married to her best friend, Edward, and they have two daughters, Falyn and Farrah. She feels blessed to now call SCA home and become a part of the rich Christian heritage within our school. Mrs. Bailey has been an educator for 18 years as well as owned several small businesses in partnership with her husband. She was raised in a Christian home as a “preacher’s kid” and finds it her mission to raise her children in a home where Christ is represented in all things. Apart from time spent as a classroom teacher, Mrs. Bailey has served in Georgia public schools as Special Education Coordinator, Literacy Coach and School Administrator. She is now thrilled to bring her years of experience in public education to a Christian school where she can truly profess her faith out loud and in her work with teachers. Her family attends Scottsdale Bible Church and in her free time she loves to travel, spend time outdoors, eat great food, binge watch Netflix and shop. The scripture that she lives her life by is always, “Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things will be added unto you (Matthew 6:33).”
