Coach Bailey has led the Lamar High School football team to seven consecutive state championship wins and was inducted into the Missouri Sports Hall of Fame in 2018.

Christopher “Scott” Bailey brings 17 years of experience with certifications in Physical Education and Business along with an outstanding track record reaching and teaching students. He has coaching experience at multiple levels including middle school, high school, and the collegiate level. 








He led Miami to runner-up at the state championship game in 2001 before eventually heading to his alma mater, Lamar, where he won seven state championships, made three semi-final and two quarter final appearances.

“We are excited to welcome Coach Bailey as the new Jays Head Football Coach,” said Jefferson City High School Activities Director Chad Rizner. 

“His accomplishments at Lamar are impressive. Building a program that won seven consecutive state titles shows that he has the ability to attract and keep kids in the program and then coach them to perform at a very high level.”
