I am one of the 6^th grade ELAR teachers. I will also be teaching a Jr. High Dsylexic class during Eagle Edge.  This is my 33^rd year in Education, but my first year at Fairfield ISD.  I am ready to Soar Like An Eagle! 

I retired in 2022 from Groesbeck ISD after 30 years with them.  I was serving as their G.T. Coordinator/Teacher.  While at that district I also taught 2^nd grade, 4^th grade, 5^th grade Science, 6^th grade ELAR, 6^th Grade Science, and was a UIL Coach and have been a Jr. High and Varsity cheer sponsor. I started teaching in my hometown at Anna ISD, I taught 2^nd grade.

I became Mrs. Baize in 1993.  Mr. Baize passed away in 2011.  We have 3 children that are now grown: Chad, Dillon and Peyton.  All 3 graduated from Groesbeck HIgh School.  Chad also graduated from Texas A&M.  I have 2 daughter in laws, Ashley and Chloe.  I have 2 grandchildren, Corbin and Wilder, and one due in December, Waylon. I also have two other very special little ones in my life, Masa and Creston. They call me Aunt Alisha.  They belong to my cousin Cullen and his wife Mandy.  They live in Fairfield.   I have too many Australian Shepards! Their names are  Skipper, Reba, CC, Skeeba and Shane.  I have rode horses all my life and enjoy riding and raising AQHA and APHA horses.  I had 4 foals this year.  Their names are Little B, Dash, Blondie and Firecracker.  

I love to read.  I have great rhythm and love to dance.  I am the world’s worse singer, however, I still sometimes sing in class.  I didn’t have a garden this year, but I do love to garden and work in flower beds.  I think canning is very satisfying.  I love going on trips and/or hanging out with my family and friends.  Grandparenting is the most awesome thing.  I love doing anything with horses.  I like to help work cattle. I enjoy helping out at rodeos or watching them.
