  • Fairhope Middle School’s motto is, “Experience the Excellence.” This educational philosophy is the driving force for all we do. Our pursuit of excellence sets the expectation that our students will indeed do their best in every aspect of their lives. With the expectation of excellence, we believe in empowering all students to achieve their full potential.

The educational climate must be safe and orderly to ensure learning for all students. The faculty should equip students with the skills needed to be successful in their next level of schooling.

BCBE Safety Message

  • Protecting our students, teachers, and employees is my priority. The Baldwin County Public School System has partnered with the Baldwin County Sheriff's Office, the Baldwin County Commission, and our municipal law enforcement agencies so that ALL our school campuses have a dedicated School Resource Officer each school day. 

    As part of our school system's multi-million dollar commitment to safety, a "buzz in"- video identification check is available on each campus. Everyone must follow stated safety procedures. 

    Of note, just because you hear "lockdown" does not necessarily mean there is an emergency on campus. We are sometimes alerted by law enforcement of a concern in the community that prompts us to implement our safety plan. 

    Of supreme importance: if you hear something, say something- not on social media- but report immediately to law enforcement, a teacher or school administrator all concerns. School administrators and law enforcement will sort out the validity. Together, we form a partnership that keeps our schools safe. Thank you for being a partner!
