Alumni story: Amanda (Scholes) Taylor `05

Name: Amanda (Scholes) Taylor

Gonzaga Prep `05, Gonzaga University `09, GU School of Law `14

As an alum of Gonzaga Prep it is important for me to provide continuous support to the school because I believe in the importance of the school’s overall mission. I am thankful for having had the opportunity to attend Gonzaga Prep, which would not have been possible without the gracious donations from its supporters, specifically those that support Gonzaga Prep’s Fair Share program. As the first person in my immediate family to graduate from high school, I experienced firsthand the direct impact a Gonzaga Prep education can have on a student’s quality of life. 

Knowing that when I support Gonzaga Prep my donations positively impact a student or family in need motivates me to pay my experience forward. I have no doubt that I would not be where I am today without Gonzaga Prep. 

The overall value of the Gonzaga Prep network is one that I will never take for granted, and hope that others will consider donating to Gonzaga Prep so that more students can receive this enhanced high school experience.
