Rancocas Valley Invites Alumni to Join new Online Community

Mount Holly, N.J. – Rancocas Valley Regional High School (RVRHS) has introduced a new online community for its alumni through the web provider Alumni Channel. The district made a commitment to re-establish the RV Alumni Association in its Board-approved Vision 2020 Strategic Plan. This new online community is one way in which RVRHS looks to cultivate relationships with its growing base of graduates.

RVRHS alumni are encouraged to visit the district’s Alumni Channel at www.rvalumni.com. The site is now live, and it provides an interactive, customized experience for each visitor, including opportunities to connect with each other and view school and class events.

“One of the core initiatives of our Strategic Plan calls for partnering with the community and alumni to enrich learning and engagement opportunities for our students,” said RVRHS Superintendent Christopher Heilig, Ed.D. “We aim to tap into the bright minds of our graduates as we continuously look for ways to improve our student experience. We know that RV Pride is strong, and so we anticipate our alumni taking advantage of this new online portal as a way to maintain their bonds with both the school and each other.”

"Schools face a real challenge in keeping connected with alumni who, after graduation, scatter throughout the world," said Chris Gehringer, president of Alumni Channel. "RV is taking a leadership position in how it uses technology to give its alumni - regardless of whether they live in the area or the Far East - an easy way to stay involved."

Founded in 1998, Alumni Channel is headquartered in Cherry Hill, N.J. For more information, visit www.alumnichannel.com.

RVRHS is in the process of initiating the 21 action plans in its Vision 2020 Strategic Plan following the approval of the action plans by the Board of Education on June 27. Visit www.rvrhs.com for more information about the Strategic Plan.
