Understanding Bay Community Bay Village .... THE MISTAKE ON THE LAKE??? We don’t think so. but then we’re loyal Bayites. Yes, there is definitely a great deal to be proud of in Bay Village. An ideal example of suburbia, Bay is a residential area composed of 5,700 individual homes. Situated on the southwestern shore of Lake Erie, the 19,500 in- habitants find Bay a unique place for raising children. The 4,160 students in Bay Village public schools and 800 in St. Raphael's may take advantage of the many recreational activities which are provided solely for their en- joyment. A total of 121 acres of parks are at their disposal for outdoor activities. Swimming, baseball and tennis are some of the more popular sports for which Bayites use these parks. Founded in 1903, Bay Village has been persistant in its endeavor to maintain its residential atmos- phere. With only a handful of small businesses and no major industry, this concept has not been altered greatly. Year after year, Bay residents defeat proposals to permit industry in Bay Village. This can only prove that the people of Bay Village are here for a rea- son. We enjoy a strictly residential lifestyle and therefore wish to keep it this way. Yes, Bay Village is a superb place to reside. Community spirit and similar lifestyles are what make Bay Village the type of town that it is. School Unlike many high schools today, Bay High can be noted as being a place of involvement. Over 1200 of the 1582 students are involved in some type of school-related activity. These activities include athletics, organizations, musical affiliations, and any other pro- jects that may be sponsored by the school. Results of a survey of students showed that the main reasons for non-involvement were that these students were in- volved in activities that were not associated with the school. Church groups, other types of organized athletics and work pro- grams are examples of these types of activities. Bay students are also noted for their academic excellence. Year after year, Bay High students score higher than the United States average on college board tests. The results of these tests show why approximately 80% of the Bay High graduates decide to fur- ther their education in some way. The types of further education they choose may differ greatly. Many graduates choose four-year colleges and universities, while some pick from the range of two- year schools. Another alternative may be a non-college institute. These are just a few of the reasons which make Bay High students the type of people who are truly re- spected by many.
