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.

What I like about this school is the fact that a lot of teachers or faculty AND the Avid program helps a lot with preparing us for after we graduate and making sure we are ready for what we choose to do in the future.

Ms. Tyus is a very patient and kind person. MsLamondie,s. Lavarriere and Ms. Henderson are effective special needs teachers. I pulled my daughter out of Volusia county public schools and put her in a special education school. She is thriving now which she was not before.

Tmhs is very overhated. The teachers are pretty good for a school in the middle of nowhere. The violence is not good but when you compare it to other schools (dhs) for example, Taylor looks good. Recommend school for sure.
