Taylors El

Posted April 30, 2009

I am a parent of two children that attend Taylors Elementary, and I am not pleased with this school at all. The admonistration is unprofessional, and do not help to solve problems. Both principals do not follow up on what they say they will do. It is very frustrating as a parent to have a problem with how the work is being presented, and talking to the teacher gets you zero results. Then you go to administration, and they also do nothing after they tell you that they will help resolve the issues. This school is not friendly, nor warm. The PTA is ran like a clique, and parents that dont fit in the box are made to feel unwelcome. I would advise anyone before going to this school please recomsider.

I have been involved as a parent at Taylors for the last 10 years. My children both attended 6 years there. The principal Vaughan Overman, is the most dedicated administrator! She holds the faculty and staff to the highest standards; but doesn't expect more than she gives and does herself. Taylors Elementary School provides a warm and nurturing environment, while continually challenging both students and teachers to strive to learn more, enjoy learning and to become responsible, and successful community members! Single gender classrooms have been extremely successful. Parents are not required to participate in this program. Related arts classes are always co-ed, and there is plenty of social opportunities for the students. The statistics have proven that the single gender classrooms have all but eliminated behavior problems, and test scores have greatly improved. Taylors TopCats are the BEST!!!

i have always loved this school, my older brothers and sisters went there, me and my twin brother went there and so did my little sister. Now that i'm all grown up and on my own my son is now attending taylors, and he is learning so fast even though i am in the military they are teaching him the skills he needs, and as a single mother in the military that is something you can really appreciate.

Our family has special permission to go to Taylors Elementary because there are so many excellent teachers, support staff, and administration. While the teachers and administration strive to meet the needs of students that are below grade level,while at the same time continuing to meet the needs of students performing higher than grade level. Many schools claim to put their students' needs above all else, but this is a school that truly does. As parents, we have never regretted driving past the school 3 minutes from our house to TES which is at least 20 minutes from our home. The administration has an open door policy that allows parents to come and discuss issues regarding their children and school. Despite their many successes, they continue to look for ways to improve. In all of their related arts classes, history, science, & math are incorporated within the lessons. Superb school!
