The Fountain Valley Fund

From Prairie to Peak: A Tradition of Excellence

What is the Fountain Valley Fund?

For 95 years, Fountain Valley School has graced the rolling western prairie — a place where scholars, athletes, and artists have excelled into bold thinkers and compassionate leaders. The Fountain Valley Fund represents this tradition of excellence, strengthening the opportunities of today, while building momentum to climb the peaks of tomorrow.

Gifts in support of the Fountain Valley Fund impact every aspect of the School, from experiential learning through the signature Western Immersion Program, to globally-based curricula through the one-of-a-kind FVS Interim. Such initiatives – and countless others through academics, athletics, and the arts – ensure the Fountain Valley experience remains world-class and unparalleled.

Your gift from the heart immediately funds initiatives to advance the student journey: from the prairie to the peak.

Professional Development

Providing faculty with opportunities for meaningful professional development both retains excellent teachers and attracts more top talent. Gifts directed to professional development heighten the FVS experience not only for faculty but also for students, as faculty are energized by these learning opportunities and transfer their enthusiasm to students within the classroom.

Campus Enhancements

FVS's generous expanse of rolling Prairie, beautiful adobe buildings and stunning views of Pikes Peak—all under an impossibly blue sky—mean so much to many. Annual Fund gifts directed to campus enhancement support the preservation and conservation of this very special place while also funding improvements that ensure our facilities meet the needs of students today and in the future.
