Kinetico Teen Education Grant

Geauga County-based Kinetico Inc., one of the world’s leading manufacturers of water treatment systems, awarded Kenston High School with one of its Kinetico Teen Education Grant programs.

The high school will use the funds to support the Kenston, Inc. High School Partnerships Speaker Series. The career education program will consist of four events featuring medicine, media, creative arts and business. The format will be made up of a panel of four to five professionals within a selected career path/field, a representative from a college or university with a strong program in the selected career path/field and a student moderator. The open forum will allow students to ask questions of professionals.

Kenston appreciates Kinetico’s support of the Partnership Speaker program and the valuable insight it will provide for students as they prepare for their futures.
