Why Give
Your donation is what makes Tam High a top academic school and an extraordinary experience.
The Tam High Foundation relies on your donation to bridge state and local funding gaps to provide academic enrichment programs, technology, guest teachers, equity, and wellness for every student.
95% of Tamalpais Union High School District (TUHSD) funding is spent on staff salaries, employment costs, and operations. Only 3% is used to cover the cost of books, supplies, and curriculum support.
