Harry R. Weller Future Fund

Investing in River’s Next Chapter

In November 2016, River Board Trustee Rachel Moore Weller established the Harry R. Weller River School Future Fund. Harry held the mission and vision of The River School close to his heart and believed it would revolutionize inclusive education and shift the paradigm on how we teach language and literacy to all children. Gifts to the Future Fund have exceeded $5 million and have enabled River to pursue a new campus.

Our vision is to create a campus that sparks creativity, celebrates excellence, and reflects the heart of our community. This new home will allow us to welcome more children, share our model of inclusive education with educators everywhere, expand and enhance our facilities, and strengthen River’s voice as a national advocate for all children.

Harry Weller was the spouse of our dedicated board member, Rachel Moore Weller, and parent to River alumni Luke (2016 Falcon) and Cash (2018 Falcon).

Harry was passionate about his family and the education of his sons. He was a strong advocate and adviser to Head of School Nancy Mellon. Harry invested in The River School's future as one of its most generous and active supporters.

We are grateful for all that Harry did for The River School and continue to work with Rachel to ensure that his legacy endures.
