Taylor Elementary loves to celebrate learning, student success and the feeling of a school community.  Taylor tigers were also exctied  to celebrate Halloween with each other on the afternoon of the 31st.  Taylor's halls were filled with ghosts, nijas, princesses, hippies and football players.  Families and friends were invited to the school after lunch to particpate in a loved tradition of the "Halloween Parade" around the perimeter of the school.  This was a fun time to celebrate Taylor's love of learning as well as keeping old traditions at our school.   Happy Halloween!
