Klamath Outdoor Science School

The Mission of the Klamath Outdoor Science School (KOSS) is:

To inspire a deep appreciation for natural resources, community, and the arts through hands-on, outdoor education.

The Klamath Outdoor Science School (KOSS) is a 501(C)3 non-profit organization created in 2004 from a grassroots effort by local teachers, parents, agency personnel, and other citizens in Southern Oregon. We are dedicated to providing students with an exciting and unique experience in a natural setting that inspires learning through exploration and instills an appreciation for the unique resources of the region.

We believe every student should have the opportunity to attend a residential outdoor school at least once in their school career. Research indicates that those who attend achieve a level of emotional investment, personal growth, relationship building, and an intensity of learning that is difficult to achieve in a regular school environment.
