GHS Trust Appoints Knodel

The Glasgow High School Educational Trust announced Jan. 25 that Beth Goldberg Knodel has been elected to the organization’s Board of Trustees. According to a press release, she brings an extensive background in bookkeeping and a long history of community service to the board.

The trust was established by members of the GHS Class of 1938 in 1964 with a mission to assist GHS alumni with the financial costs of post-secondary education. To date, the trust has awarded 2,079 financial gifts to hundreds of different GHS alumni. The total value of these awards is estimated at over $1.7 million dollars.

Knodel is currently serving her second term as secretary to the Executive Board of the Fort Peck Fine Arts Council. She was a member of the Frances Mahon Deaconess Hospital Guild from 2003 to 2013 serving as both treasurer and a member of the scholarship committee for the entire 10 years. In the fall of 2014, she began volunteering as the scheduler for the Valley Event Center.

In addition to the gifts made to students, the trust also purchases equipment and programs for the school that cannot be financed within the regular budget. Every department of GHS has received awards, benefitting all students across the curriculum.
