Taylor High School Reviews
Rating 3.66 out of 5 108 reviews
No one wants to be here! Many of the teachers have either left or hate it now due to the freshman last year and the new ones this year. Another thing, the school culture is completely horrendous. The redeeming qualities are a couple teachers that in fact do care about the students here, and make an effort to push you and help you get informed about the real world, some of them are of course not exactly fantastic, but at least a handful id consider very good people, not just teachers.
Taylor High School is a relatively diverse school, and I enjoy that. I like being able to be in an environment with people of many different ethnic backgrounds and different living situations, as it gives me more insight to society and the world around me. Although there are occasional brawls and very public arguments, the overall environment is nice. We're a a small school, as well as a big family. The isn't really anything that I would change. I grew up through this school, and I've gotten to see how the environment and demographic has changed. I've never seen a more welcoming and inclusive student body. I enjoy Taylor High School.
As a sophomore attending Taylor High School, I am eminently satisfied with the preservation of academic prestige and intellectual horsepower. The diversity among my peers directly impacts our performance, enabling us students to strive for success due to our contrasting backgrounds. But despite Taylor High School’s remarkable academic achievements, the corporation does not financially support the music department. In the upcoming years, I would appreciate financial assistance and recognition for the music department.
