The Annual Fund is 100% allocated toward Green Vale's day-to-day financial needs, supplementing tuition/fees and a conservative draw from the endowment as Green Vale's sources of income.
It's no coincidence that the largest component of the annual operating budget supports the School's greatest asset: salaries and benefits for unparalleled teachers.
The Annual Fund also makes possible:
- Accelerated Academics
- Enhanced Arts & Athletics
- Faculty Development
- Technology Upgrades
- Campus Maintenance
- Tuition Assistance
Each year's Annual Fund closes June 30. Green Vale aims for 100% annual parent participation. Gifts range in size from $25-$85,000. Make a Gift.
100 years ago,
Green Vale was founded by parents who believed in providing a quality education that would stand the test of time, hence the motto Optima Durant (The Best Endures). Today, the School retains this spirit and preserves traditions that have drawn students together in a shared sense of community for generations. A hallmark of the Green Vale experience is belonging to something larger than oneself.
Perhaps the most beloved tradition in Blue-Gold Day. Beginning in 4th Grade, each child (and their family) is designated a Blue or Gold for life. Where do you belong?
Team Blue | Team Gold | Team GVS |
In honor of the centennial, the 2022-2023 Annual Fund is the ultimate Blue-Gold competition. Make a gift in honor of your team, or in honor of the School we love.
