Morehead offers multiple opportunities for scholarships to cover one day of fees for our Outreach programs.

Scholarships are awarded to schools based on level of need, geographic location, and other factors to ensure that scholarship funds are offered equally to schools across the state in financial need.

By indicating "yes" below, your school will be added to our scholarship waitlist and will be evaluated for scholarship eligibility/availability once funds are made available at the end of the waitlist period.

Funds are typically made available in late August for visits tentatively scheduled in the Fall, and by late September for visits scheduled in the Spring.

Schools that request after the waitlist period will be evaluated for eligibility and awarded funding on a first-come, first-serve basis as funding remains available.

i.e. holidays, breaks, teacher workdays, testing, half-days, picture days, etc.

List conflicts like lunch times etc. If you're able to adjust lunch times or conflicts, let us know.

We will use this info to determine session times. We do not start sessions before 9am.

I.e. Multipurpose room, Gym, specific classroom number. Please note the space requirements for the inflatable dome if your visit will include a mobile planetarium show.

The Morehead in Motion: Earth and Beyond program offers 3 choices of programs for your school:

Classroom programs: Students experience exciting astronomy visualizations, explore moon phases and light, learn to map planetary surfaces, hunt for exoplanets, and much more!

Mobile Planetarium: Bring one of our many planetarium shows to your school in our inflatable dome.

Both Options! - Schedule a pair of classes and a planetarium show (or vice versa) for the same day, or classrooms one day and planetarium the next day).

If you have any preference on visit day/date range or specific months/weeks, use this space to elaborate.

Please note that we do not schedule visits on Mondays or Fridays.

We are usually unable to honor preferences for specific dates due to the volume of requests we receive.

While we will consider preference for certain months and dates when making our schedule, we will typically initially offer the earliest available date that our program is able to visit in your area before exploring dates later in the calendar.

Please review the Fees and Requirements section of the Earth and Beyond webpage linked here.

Note that mileage fees are calculated based on round-trip distance from Morehead Planetarium via Google Maps, and that both the mileage and travel fees apply to visits over 90 miles from Morehead.
