  • school is good for the most part. some teachers care more than others but thats all schools. food is absolutely horrid. hoping on better lunches this year. student graduation rate here isnt all that high, they have a reasonable extracurricular activities. work wise, its not all too much, but depends on the teacher. all around i give it a 3 out of 5. not bad considering other schools in taylor.

  • this school has great teachers and staff because of them my children have really been able to shine my dauhter recieved a very prestegious scholarship to the university of michigan!! amazing school!! and people have to remeber a school is what the students and parents make of it not anything to do with the teacher or the staff so maybe if more parents would step up and put forth the effort and if more kids stay involved in school the envirorment people percieve would be to a higher standard!

  • This is a bad school. The counselor my daughter has is worthless. My daughter came from another school where she was in college bound classes. The counselor refused to put her in those kind of classes. I had a teacher call to tell me my daughter wrote a suicidal essay come to find out it was another student. Then there was a teacher who was failing the entire class and her supervisor told me that was not happening when I saw all the grades at parent teacher conferences as they were all on one paper. If you want your kids to succeed do not send them there. My kids will not come back the next school year. Wish it was possible to give a zero.
