I can see clearly now, the rain is gone… and thanks to Helen Keller Intl, our 8th graders can see the board a whole lot better! 👓

A huge THANK YOU to Helen Keller Intl for providing our 8th-grade students with a wonderful vision screening opportunity! Our students not only received important vision screenings but also had the opportunity to receive FREE glasses to help them see clearly and succeed in the classroom.

We are grateful for your partnership and for helping our students have the tools they need to learn, grow, and thrive!

And while we’re talking about seeing clearly, we hope you’ll see Animo James B. Taylor Middle School as a great choice for your child’s future! Enrollment for the 2027–2028 school year is OPEN! Come take a closer look at everything we have to offer, from sports and after-school programs to college courses and much more.

Don’t just take our word for it… see the difference for yourself!

Science in action! 🧪 Students in Ms. Chavez’s class are exploring chemical reactions through hands-on MRE (Meals Ready-to-Eat) activities. They’re learning how chemical reactions work, observing changes, and discovering the science behind how MREs heat up without a traditional heat source.

Want your student to experience engaging, hands-on learning like this? Enrollment for next school year is open! Families interested in joining Animo James B. Taylor are welcome to stop by our office any weekday between 8:00 AM and 3:30 PM or call 323-568-8613 to schedule a campus tour.
