what is big baker energy?
#BigBakerEnergy was coined in the Summer of 2022 by the Leadership Team from the hit song, ‘Big Energy’ (Clean Version) by Latto. At Baker Middle School, we are re-writing our narrative. We are creating a positive environment that is conducive to teaching and learning! It’s about believing in yourself – how you walk, how you talk, just carrying yourself like the person that you believe you are.
“I wanted it to be empowering. It’s an aura that you carry and a confidence. It’s just an overall vibe and when you walk in the room, you have ‘big energy’ and no one can tell you otherwise. It’s an uplifting thing and turning a funny quote into something positive.”
-Latto
