Our Cause: Taylor Ranch School has a long-standing history of community service and giving back to our Venice community. This year's event will help set our current and former students up for success.
- We are funding senior scholarships for former TRS Trailblazers who have continued their commitment to community throughout high school.
- Our main fundraising goal is to secure two interventionists for the 2026-2027 school year. Interventionists work directly with students to reach grade-level mastery in both reading and math. Their expertise and time is of great benefit to our teachers and students!
Join us for this full-community event, open to all who are dedicated to supporting students and their education!
