A message from our principal

Welcome to Taft-Home of the Tigers! 

Taft has a strong tradition of excellence in education. At Taft, we recognize that, as educational experts, it is our responsibility to carefully and thoughtfully guide each and every student through their middle school years so they are prepared for high school and beyond. 

Taft staff are exemplary educators who promote positive decision making and for students to engage in their learning while they prepare for and execute top-notch lesson plans that encourage all students to learn at a deeper level. While attending Taft, your student can expect positive interactions while being held to high standards. 

Middle school students should be able to learn in a safe, supportive, and respectful environment where student achievement should be encouraged and creativity should be explored. 

The Pride Starts Here!
