Tayloe Enrichment Scholarship Fund
About
The Tayloe Scholarship Selection Committee and Friends of Hal have stepped forward with a matching challenge in Hal’s honor:
- Gifts up to $100 → matched 2-to-1 (your $50 becomes $150!)
- Gifts over $100 → matched dollar-for-dollar
- Total match pool: $20,500 - once it’s gone, it’s gone
The Tayloe Enrichment Scholarship Fund was established by a bequest from the estate of longtime HRA teacher and golf coach Hal Tayloe upon his passing in 2000. Honoring Mr. Tayloe’s goal of encouraging students to engage in independent projects in areas of personal interest during the summer months, HRA draws on this endowed fund to grant one or more students a stipend to conduct scholarly research or pursue hands-on applied learning experiences each year. Awards are presented at the annual Founders’ Day and Memorial Awards Assembly in the spring.
Through this endowment, Middle and Upper School students are empowered, in Mr. Tayloe’s own words, “to discover themselves through their active participation in their dreams.”
