#livemorelikebailee

The Bailee Mantei Memorial Scholarship was started in 2019, to honor the life of Bailee Mantei, a Freshman at Freeland High School who was killed in an automobile accident. 

Bailee was extremely excited to be at Freeland High School for her freshman year.  In addition to her success in the classroom, Bailee was the Vice President of her class, served as a CSO for STEM, participated in PALSS (Peers are Linked for Social Success) and Travel club.

 

Bailee had a passion for sports and participated in many throughout the years, but her heart belonged to soccer.  She started playing soccer at the age of four in the Clio AYSO program but her talent and drive led her to eventually play for the Nationals in the National League Midwest Conference.  Bailee looked forward to playing soccer for Freeland High School and hoped to one-day play at a collegiate level.

 

When Bailee wasn’t busy with sports and school, she enjoyed spending time with her family and volunteering in her community.  She left a lasting impression on every person she came in contact with and will be dearly missed by her family and friends. 

​

Our wish is that the recipients of the Bailee Mantei Memorial Scholarship continue to show dedication and pride in everything they do and remember every day to Live More Like Bailee.​
