Many Calgary students who have the ability to attend a post-secondary school will not get an opportunity to do so because of limited family financial resources. The Rotary Club of Calgary at Stampede Park "Stay-In-School" Scholarship Foundation has been enacted to provide financial assistance and mentorship to selected students. The program has 3 key objectives:​ Support and motivate students who may not have the financial resources to attend a post-secondary educational institution;​ Encourage students and their parents to investigate opportunities available to them after high school; Introduce the work of Rotary to educators, students and parents and encourage the development of similar programs by other groups. Every year the Rotary Club of Calgary at Stampede Park's  "Stay In School" program selects 4 grade 6 students from economically challenged families to  participate in the program. We continue to mentor and provide financial aid for them until they achieve their dream of a post secondary education.​
