Terrell Alternative Education Center (TAEC)
PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE
The Terrell ISD Terrell Alternative Education Center (TAEC) staff is committed to the idea that student competence can be built or rebuilt through an approach that combines individual attention, academic success, behavior adjustment, and networking of school and community resources.

This configuration and partnership with our feeder campuses will ensure high academic standards for all.
