School Reviews

I loved The Taylor intermediate school. It provided a great learning facililty that my child loved and thought was fun...as did I. Taylor, Arizona schools are big in there reading acedemics and encourage children to read daily. At the end of every 9 weeks, they get an award if they read the reccomended number of books on their level in a curtain ammount of time (9weekss). Their Principal at Taylor Intermediate, Mr. Hughes, is great also. He is wonderful at problem sovilng and Loves to be involved with the childrens learning. I'm also a huge fan of the childrens physical education. My child would come home every day with a smile on there face telling me how much fun they had at P.E. and my child isn't even a very big fan of physical Tasks.Another Plus is the Teachers at Taylor Intermediate. The teachers there are always finding fun, new solutions for their students. The down side to the teachers though, is that I did have soem trouble with one in the 6th grade. Mrs. Hudson,but there will always be one bad teacher at every school so I guess either way parents will have to deal with one.
