The associated Kimball School Foundation, established in 1990, has awarded over $96,000 in educational grants and handles over $66,000 in scholarship monies since 1992. The district operates under the regulatory oversight of the Nebraska Department of Education and is a member of the Nebraska School Activities Association.
