Again, it feels like family here. Unfortunately, COVID might negatively impact some of the amazing interactions like family night, which will be sad. Family night was an extra bonus of this school. I rate this school as extremely exceptional and safe for my kids.

Needs a new principal period. He is more interested in keeping a a+ scoring than a childs welfare

My child has failed the last two years and at the end of the year he was given a five page packet and told he has a D now. He gets moved to the next grade and forgotten about. Don't forget about all the money I spend making him take off his clothes before he gets home from the BED BUG out break that has lasted over two years.

I went to this school as a child, and now my daughter goes there! I believe it is an excellent school, the teachers are wonderful and truly care for their students. All the other staff is very helpful and sweet. I am so glad my daughter gets to attend the same elementary school that I did. She loves her school and the staff that works there. She is always excited for school in the mornings. I wouldn't have her go anywhere else, if we moved I would find a way to get her a boundary exception. Taft is a wonderful school and I appreciate all the staff for being such caring wonderful people!!!!
