"INVESTING TODAY IN THE INTEREST
OF STUDENT SUCCESS TOMORROW"
Our mission:
* Fund and Award SCHOLARSHIPS for deserving graduating seniors
$120,275 awarded to 43 KHS 2020 graduates
* Fund and Award GRANTS for innovative K-12 educational activities that benefit a substantial segment of students for which public resources are insufficient.
Since 1997 over $210,000 has been awarded to fund KPSF Grants
within Kelso Public Schools in the following areas:
32% Literacy
20.5% Career/Technical Education
13% Music
11% Teachers
10.5% Health & Physical Education
7% Math & Science
6% Special Education
The demand for GRANTS has grown, we need to increase our financial resources.
Classrooms and instruction will look different in the 2020-21 school year, together we can assist teachers and advisors to have the greatest impact on student learning! Help us support Kelso Public Schools staff during this difficult time by funding innovative activities/projects for our students.
Your donation will help fill the financial gap and support programs like these:
"Homework and Positive Start Room" in an elementary school
"Salmon Release Program" interactive field trip for middle school students
"Food Pantry" for students in an economically challenged elementary school
"AeroGarden System" students growing fresh herbs as an alternative to salt
"Scholastic Storyworks Jr." magazine & materials for a 3rd grade classroom
