Reba McEntire has donated $60,000 to a school in rural Spavinaw, Okla., that faced a severe budget gap. The school educates 130 students from pre-kindergarten through eighth grade and had faced a 22 percent budget cut from the previous year. School board president Guy Alloway told the Tulsa World newspaper, “We were $60,000 in the hole.” Alloway said he tried to contact the offices of several celebrities to solicit donations and called a phone number listed on McEntire’s website. After several calls to confirm the dire situation, Alloway said a $60,000 check, as well as a $1,000 anonymous donation, arrived on Oct. 13. McEntire is an Oklahoma native.

Reba McEntire has revealed the track listing for her upcoming album, ‘All the Women I Am,’ due in stores November 9. The legendary performer’s 34th career studio album will include her lead-off single, ‘Turn On the Radio,’ which is currently sitting in the Top 15 on the Mediabase/Country Aircheck chart. Over the past week or so, Reba has been giving her fans a first-look at the tracks appearing on the record via her Twitter page.

The collection will also feature her cover of Beyonce’s hit, ‘If I Were a Boy,’ which Reba first performed on CMT’s ‘Unplugged’ a few months ago, as well as ‘Somebody’s Chelsea,’ which she co-wrote with Liz Henberger and Will Robinson.

In choosing the songs for ‘All the Women I Am,’ as well as all of her previous albums, Reba relied mainly on one thing: pick great songs. “That’s the key,” she explains. “No matter how great you can sing or how many people can work the song for you, you’ve got to have that great song. I mean, it’s got to be honest and true and just a great song.”

A deluxe version of the collection, which includes her AOL Sessions performance, the ‘Unplugged’ performance of ‘If I Were a Boy’ and behind-the-scenes footage of the video for ‘Turn on the Radio,’ as well as the video itself in its entirety.

Reba is currently on the road with George Strait and Lee Ann Womack. Their next scheduled tour date is in Pittsburgh, Pa., Thursday, October 14. Check out her full tour schedule here.
