If you will be new to Taylor Middle School next year and have not completed course selections with a school counselor yet, please reach out to Mrs. Smith (melissa.smith@taylorisd.org) for more information about how to request classes.

If you have changed your mind about a class, please turn in a "Course Change Request" form during the first week of school in August to request a change. Forms should be turned into the box in the cafeteria so that counselors can call you down to discuss your request. We cannot guarantee that we can make the changes due to availability and scheduling considerations, but we will do our best! Forms will be available in the cafeteria starting the first day of school and are due no later than 4pm on Wednesday, August 20th.
