• School Financial Aid Application

  • At Keystone Science School, we feel strongly about the power and importance of experiential science education. Keystone Science School (KSS) offers financial assistance to offset the cost of our programs to eligible schools. While no funding is guaranteed, we strive to provide assistance to schools with limited resources in order to ensure that youth from a variety of backgrounds and circumstances have the opportunity to attend our life-changing programs.

  • The Process:

    • Financial aid applications are accepted on an ongoing basis.
      • KSS does not have a permanent scholarship fund. To provide financial aid, we attempt to match schools with grants/funders and solicit support on the school’s behalf. Please allow ample time for applications to be processed . The grant process is time intensive, please plan on approximately a year between submitting an application and having a school group attend KSS.
    • The lead teacher will be notified once financial aid amount is determined. KSS staff will provide the lead teacher with progress updates throughout the funding request process.  

    For detailed information on our school programs please visit KeystoneScienceSchool.org or contact Dave Miller, Director of Marketing and Strategic Partnerships at (970) 368-4082 or DMiller@KeystoneScienceSchool.org.

  • Required Materials:

    • Letter of Support
