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.

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.

Overall the school is fairly small. There is a lack of opportunities in the arts. I hope the music program an be built upon and give students more opportunities.

Taylor Preparatory High School is full of wonderful teachers and staff that are willing to help students succeed. However, the school does lack the high school experience that I was looking forward to. The school doesn't have a football team, nor do they have a track field for the track team to practice on.

If you want you or your child to experience a good high school life, don't send them here. The teachers are awful and some seem fresh out of college with no experience whatsoever.

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...
