Our Impact
“Mission Moments”


We are proud of the impact Keystone Science School has on its participants, whether in summer camp or an outdoor education program. Through scholarships, subsidized rates and local outreach, our programs impact the lives of the youth who visit by teaching environmental science and instilling an appreciation for the outdoors. Our “Mission Moments” share this impact through the words of participating students and teachers along with the instructors and mentors that help run these programs.
