Alan R. & Carol W. Nichols for Science & Technology

Academic & Technical Education

Established Circle of Investment

Alan and Carol Nichols created this fund for Science and Technology after both of their children attended QPS and benefitted from the programming. Alan spent his career working in the sciences, earning advanced degrees in chemical engineering and participating in cutting edge research projects, and the couple had reached a place in their lives where they wanted to give back to public education.

This Circle was founded in 2018.
