"I am going to taft now and I think it is the best school I have ever been to in my entire life. Now since some kids have gone to wheeler it hasnt been as crowded as before and I would recommened it to any other 6th, 7th, or 8th grader."

"Last year I attended Taft as a seventh grader. I am now at the new middle school, Wheeler. There was way too much overcrowding there. They should have either made an addition or added another school a LONG time ago. Everything was always dirty and it wasn't from the construction, either. Desks were old, no money for anything new. It was horrible. Wheeler is much nicer!!"

"Yes the school is crowded - that is why another middle school will be opening Fall 2007. I have had nothing but a positive experience with this school. My son is a 7th grader and has had a hard time adjusting. Ms Harlon has been such a great help. This staff knows how the mind of a young teenager works. I have been allowed to check his locker for missing books and assignments. My son's teachers keep me informed and encourage parental involvement. They genuinely care about their students. Every child will have a different experience at Taft, but if you need help you don't have to go far. The teachers and staff really do care."
