Taylor to vote on $82.47 million bond

TAYLOR – With half of Taylor’s schools projected to be over capacity in 2026 and the fact that it takes three years to get a new school designed and built, Taylor ISD is on a tight deadline to get funding approved. Add in the safety and security updates needed at the existing schools, and you have the foundation for the $82.47 million bond Taylor ISD residents will be voting on come November. 10/08/2022 08:57 AM

Do I have text neck?

Do I have text neck?

For more than 20 years I have been seeing patients with neck problems, however within the last 5 to 7 years a new situation has arisen that is being seen in numbers much higher than previously. Today society has caused individuals to become more sedentary and in a continuous or chronic Forward Head Posture (FHP). This often times leads to a condition that is now known as Text Neck. 10/08/2022 08:57 AM

Local love

Every time I am at Good Strangers, I feel like home. And I can tell other people sitting there chatting with their friends feel the same. It’s a great place to meet or just to pause. The locally roasted coffee is my favorite of course but overall, it’s the loving environment that always brings me back. 10/08/2022 08:57 AM
