Newton's Attic, a 501c3 nonprofit founded in 1998 by Bill Cloyd, is dedicated to providing students with highly unusual educational experiences and providing STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) educational resources to parents, students, and teachers at all grade levels. Newton's Attic has worked with numerous middle and high schools and groups in Fayette and surrounding counties as well as the University of Kentucky, Berea College, EKU, WKU, and with students from as far away as Colorado, who have traveled to participate in the unique programs.

Frustrated by the confines of the classroom, Cloyd was inspired to create Newton's Attic where he developed a highly engaging approach to educating students about the excitement, fun, and career opportunities available to them through physics and engineering. Using the concept of play as the ultimate learning tool, Cloyd now has a library of programs that allow students to engage in hands-on design, fabrication, and field-testing of their own mechanical devices in highly energized and competitive environments. Cloyd is a professional mechanical engineer.

Newton's Attic is proud to offer many programs such as Summer Day Camps, Field Trips, Afterschool Programs, Home School Programs, Group Events, Special Project Shop Use, Scout Badge Classes, and Birthday Parties.
