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.

The best part of Taylor preparatory high school is you can meet really great helpful teachers. The worst part is administration makes unhelpful rules and make the lives of their students harder.

The student body is small, so eventually you'll get to know many of the same people in your grade, the staff size also relatively small so you can develop connections and get advice on not just school but college information as well. The school often has school events as college related ones for those planning to go(ubcluding monthly college visits). Good school for college prep.

This is a great school if you're child is struggling academically or if they are looking for opportunities to grow. The grading system is designed so students not only pass tests but understand the subject. There are many AP opportunities and dual enrollment courses. The staff is very friendly and the school is small. Overall a great experience.

It felt like they didn’t even care about you they just throw a packet at your face and expect you to know it....

This school is not good for college readiness at all. There are very few AP classes or classes that aren't the bare minimum graduation requirements. Taylor High has engineering and cooking classes but here? nope. The work is not challenging and all feels like filler. Teachers come and go like nothin...
