Brody Bailey, who also answers to nickname B. Bailey, was born on Feb. 5, 2007 to Matt Bailey and Helen Bailey. He joined big brother Seth, now 21. More brothers followed and included Gavin Menke-Bailey, also a senior, and Grayson Bailey, 11, and Miles Bailey, 9. His doting grandparents are Kevin and Gail Bailey and the late Teresa and Joe Demeter.
Brody has been a member of the NLHS Class of 2025 since day one. His activities in high school have included baseball and eSports. Honors have included getting to State multiple times. His most cherished memory was getting third place at Smite 2023 at State. His most embarrassing moment was dropping a pop fly his freshman year.
When he is not at school, you will find Brody playing video games or burning up the keys on his computer.
When asked what makes his class special, he was keeping that info to himself. But he did have very wise advice to the underclassmen: do your assignments.
For his special people, he singled out his parents, Matt and Helen, and Kelly Bailey because they always support him.
As Brody looks forward to graduation and plans for college next year, Tiger Nation wishes him the best of luck in his future endeavors and wants him to know he will be missed!
