Alief Taylor High School

Alief Taylor High School is a public high school in the Alief Independent School District. It is located in an unincorporated area in the Alief community of Harris County, near Houston, Texas, United States. Opened in 2001, Alief Taylor is the newest high school in the district. It is named after Edward "Doc" Taylor, who taught AP American History at Alief Hastings High School.

According to the Texas Education Agency, Taylor covers grades 9-12 and has 500 or more students in each grade level. When it opened in the fall of 2001, it had only freshmen and sophomores. During the 2002–2003 school year the 11th grade was added. Taylor added its first 12th grade class during the 2003–2004 school year. Alief Taylor is one of two schools in Alief ISD that does not include a Ninth Grade Center, a separate building for ninth grade students. The other is Kerr High School. Alief Taylor was originally referred to as "High School No. 4."

It is located in the International District.

In 2022, Taylor received a C rating from the Texas Education Agency.

Alief Taylor High School opened on August 13, 2001. The school was initially designated for freshmen and sophomores only, in an attempt to alleviate overcrowding at nearby Elsik and Hastings High Schools which, at the time, had a combined student population of over 9,000. It eventually expanded to accept students from 9th to 12th grades. Unlike Hastings or Elsik, Taylor hosts all grade levels (9-12) on the same campus.

In the 2016–2017 school year, Taylor High School received a Met Standard rating from the Texas Education Agency. The class of 2015 averaged a score of 18 on the ACT and 1148 on the SAT.

The school was rated Met Standard in 2017–18, received a C rating in 2018–19, was Not Rated in 2019–2020 or 2020–2021, and received a C rating in 2021–2022.

Alief Taylor has one state championship, six regional titles, and eight district titles in football, track, cross country, tennis, swimming, and diving.[citation needed]
