GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Taylor High School is best at being a community. It is easy for any new student to find a friend group who will connect with them. I love the teachers at this school, and they are devoted to helping us become ready for future education and career. The worst parts of my experience may be involving any fights that happen in the building.
