About Taylor Independent School District
Taylor Independent School District serves approximately 3,500 students across six campuses in the city of Taylor and surrounding eastern Williamson County. The district covers roughly 125 square miles of Blackland Prairie farmland east of the I-35 corridor, centered on the city of Taylor at the intersection of US-79 and State Highway 95. Taylor was established in the 1870s as a railroad junction and cotton-processing hub, and its historic downtown along Main Street retains early commercial architecture from that era. The district boundary extends north toward Granger, east toward Thorndale, south toward Hutto, and west to within a few miles of the Samsung semiconductor fabrication site that has reshaped the local economy since its 2021 announcement.
Real estate within Taylor ISD includes the city's historic core neighborhoods with homes built from the 1920s through the 1960s, newer suburban subdivisions on the west and south sides of town, and rural acreage on the district's outer edges. Existing homes in established Taylor neighborhoods typically price from $200K to $400K. New construction in master-planned communities such as North Fork and Villages of Berry Springs ranges from $300K to $550K, with larger floor plans and upgraded lots reaching higher. Rural tracts of 5 to 20 acres on the northern and eastern edges of the district list from $400K to $800K depending on improvements and road access. The median home price in the district sits around $320K, which remains competitive relative to Williamson County communities closer to Austin.
The district operates three elementary campuses: T.H. Johnson Elementary, Pasemann Elementary, and Naomi Press Elementary, each serving pre-K through 5th grade. Taylor Middle School covers 6th through 8th grade. Taylor High School serves 9th through 12th grade and enrolls approximately 1,000 students. The district also offers an early college high school program in partnership with Temple College, allowing students to earn an associate degree or up to 60 college credit hours alongside their high school diploma. Taylor High School competes in UIL Class 4A athletics, with a long tradition in football and baseball. The district has expanded support staff and counseling services in response to enrollment growth tied to the Samsung-driven population increase.
Taylor is situated approximately 30 miles northeast of downtown Austin. US-79 connects Taylor to Round Rock in about 25 minutes, and State Highway 130 provides a tollway route south to Austin-Bergstrom International Airport in roughly 35 minutes. Samsung's semiconductor fabrication facility on the western edge of the city is expected to employ over 2,000 workers upon full operation, with additional supplier facilities planned nearby. The Taylor Municipal Airport handles general aviation traffic. The historic downtown square has seen revitalization efforts including new restaurant openings and facade restorations, capitalizing on the influx of new residents and economic activity.
