Wonder lives in the generosity of our donors.
With boundless gratitude, we would like to acknowledge the tremendous generosity of the donors who have supported River Valley School.
River Valley School is profoundly grateful to announce a transformative gift of $500,000 from the Shirley Glen Family Trust.
Shirley Glen, a cherished member of our community, grandmother, and dedicated RVS volunteer, was a passionate educator, lifelong learner, and fervent advocate for children’s education. Her dedication to family and her love for learning will continue to inspire us always. The incredible generosity of this gift reflects Shirley’s unwavering belief in the transformative power of education and her commitment to nurturing the minds and hearts of future generations.
This extraordinary contribution will empower River Valley School to advance our teaching and learning opportunities, fostering a sense of wonder and curiosity in every student. We are deeply grateful to Shirley and her extended family for their foresight and generosity in partnering with us to transform the lives of hundreds of students—now and for years to come.
Stay tuned for further updates this fall regarding the student benefits and recognition of this historic and generous gift.
We are truly grateful for the exceptional educational experience that River Valley School has provided for our child over the past 3 years. We believe Shirley would be delighted to support River Valley School, knowing what a rich learning environment it has provided. We trust this donation will contribute to strengthening the school, ensuring that more children will benefit in the future.
