Bison Scholars Fund opens doors that would otherwise stay closed — and prepares K–12 children for a world being reshaped by AI. Decisions based on curiosity, effort, and promise. Nothing else.
Get in touchWe exist to open doors for children: the school that truly fits how a child learns, the tutoring that catches a struggling reader before he falls behind, the books, instruments, and opportunities that let a student stay in the classroom where she belongs — and the skills every child will need in an AI world.
Three commitments, kept simple on purpose.
Scholarships that help a child attend the school where she will actually thrive — not just the one her family can reach today.
Tutoring, books, instruments, and the small, timely help that keeps a small problem from becoming a lost year.
Learning programs where children master the fundamentals fast, then spend their afternoons building, questioning, and creating with AI — not being replaced by it.
Our learning model pairs good software with something software can’t replace: a human guide.
Core academics in focused daily sessions. A child moves on when she has truly mastered a skill — not when the calendar says so.
Parents and mentors guide, encourage, and notice what a screen can’t. In homeschool families, parents already are the guides — we build around them.
Freed time goes to projects, portfolios, and learning how AI works by making things with it.
Our learning tools run locally, on a family’s own computer. A child’s work stays with the family — no student data sent to the cloud.
Formed in Sheridan, Wyoming, the Fund will begin by serving Wyoming students — including rural and homeschool families, for whom a good education has too often meant a long drive or a weak connection. Our tools are built to work offline, because a child’s learning shouldn’t depend on broadband. From Wyoming, we intend to grow, state by state.
Are you a Wyoming family, a homeschool co-op, a teacher, or a mentor who believes a child’s promise should matter more than her family’s income? We’d like to hear from you.
