Your Ultimate Field Trip Awaits!

At Keystone Science School, science comes to life outside of the classroom. Here, students step into the field to apply what they’ve learned—getting their hands dirty, exploring ecosystems firsthand, and conducting real-world investigations in the natural environment. Science at KSS is immersive, hands-on, and unforgettable. By experiencing science in action, students deepen their understanding, curiosity, and connection to the natural world.
