As the new school year begins, it’s a wonderful time to show your support for our students and the educators who make learning possible.
Kalispell Public Schools (KPS) provides a high-quality educational experience to over 6,000 students in the Flathead Valley. At the same time, every KPS school qualifies for free meals, highlighting the real financial needs among our students. Taxpayer dollars play a crucial role in our schools, but unique needs and opportunities often arise that exceed school budgets.
A gift to Kalispell Education Foundation will:
![]() | Empower Students You help narrow the opportunity gap for students by providing access to learning experiences outside of the walls of the classroom, such as field trips and college visits, and becoming a champion for equality in education. |
![]() | Support Teachers and Staff Great educators inspire a love for learning that lasts a lifetime. Your gift provides special classroom materials, access to professional development opportunities, and teacher appreciation. |
![]() | Enrich Programs Education goes beyond textbooks and traditional classroom instruction, and this is being addressed with more enthusiasm than ever in KPS. Donor gifts support art, music, literacy, STEM, physical wellness, and special education initiatives that nurture creativity, critical thinking, and career and college readiness. |
![]() | Strengthen the Community The success of Kalispell Public Schools directly affects the families, local businesses, and quality of life in Kalispell. By investing in education, you invest in our future leaders and the prosperity of our valley. |
