For over a decade, Glenstone has been a proud supporter and partner of Montgomery County Public Schools. Guided by our commitment to being a community anchor and resource, Glenstone provides complimentary bus transportation and substitute teacher reimbursement for all middle and high school groups that participate in a guided engagement.

Since 2012, Glenstone has hosted nearly a hundred middle and high school groups, engaging over 13,000 Montgomery County students and chaperones, and counting.

Summer RISE (Reimagining an Innovative Student Experience) is a month-long initiative by Montgomery County Public Schools, in collaboration with businesses, government agencies, and nonprofits. It provides rising juniors and seniors the chance to explore careers, build confidence in their choices, or pivot if needed. Students gain insights into organizational functions, employer expectations, and industry-specific or transferable skills.

Since 2019, Glenstone has hosted 40 students across various departments, offering hands-on experience in a non-profit cultural setting. For Summer RISE 2025, the goal is to support up to 1,000 students. You can help by becoming a Summer RISE host or sponsor to support program costs, the closing ceremony, and student materials.
