Taylor High School

What Taylor High School does

Taylor High School is a public secondary school serving grades 9–12 in Kokomo, Indiana, operating as a subsidiary within Taylor Community School Corporation (TCSC), a state-supervised K-12 public school district. The district operates three schools — Taylor High School (9–12), Taylor Middle School (6–8), and Taylor Elementary School (K–5) — serving approximately 1,500+ students across Howard County. The corporation is funded primarily through Indiana state education formula allocations, federal Title program funding, local property tax levies, and nominal student fees for meals, textbooks, and optional programs; there is no tuition charged to in-district students.

The school delivers a standard public high school program including college preparatory coursework, ACT/SAT preparation, scholarship coordination, career counseling, athletics (Taylor Titans), and extracurricular activities. It uses a cloud-based, multi-vendor ed-technology stack including Skyward as the student information system, Clever as single sign-on for instructional apps, Google Workspace for Education, ParentSquare for parent communication and district CMS, Savvas for curriculum delivery, Destiny Library for library management, My School Bucks for meal payments, and Willsub for substitute teacher scheduling. The district has prioritized website accessibility compliance under Section 504 and Title II of the Rehabilitation Act, adopting WCAG 2.0–2.1 A, AA standards.

In December 2025, TCSC launched the Taylor Hybrid Academy at Taylor High School and Middle School, extending the educational delivery model to a hybrid in-person/remote format as part of the district's Digital Learning Initiative. Leadership includes Principal Brandon Gleason, Director of School Counseling Tiffany Boruff (appointed June 2017), Athletic Director Kirk Wiley, and Scholarship Coordinator Charlie Short at the high school, with district-wide directors (Special Education, Title I, Maintenance, Food Service) supporting all three schools. Taylor High School does not operate as a commercial enterprise; it has no public ticker, no commercial revenue model, and no go-to-market motion in the conventional sense — student enrollment is geographically constrained to the state-defined attendance area and administered through the district's Skyward enrollment portal.
