Preparing for 6th Grade

Taylor PTA welcomes parents and their 6th graders for the 2023–2024 school year.

On the student's printed schedule, the meet days (class days) are listed in an unusual order. M=Monday, T=Tuesday, W=Wednesday, R=Thursday, and F=Friday.

If you did not get your student’s PE uniform, buy a PE uniform now.

Taylor breakfast and lunches are no cost to all students and no application needed. If you are low-income, please fill out a meal application as this helps Taylor get money from the California Department of Education.

Driving your student to school? Designated drop-off zones are:

1. white zone on Taylor Blvd. in front of school (U-turn and three-point turns not legal here)

2. parking lot on Taylor Blvd. near the intersection of Minorca Wy., Camino Alto, and Taylor Blvd.

3. Shea Center’s traffic circle
