4th graders have spent this semester in STEAM designing and building a theme park. Many of the projects turned out larger than anticipated and would be difficult to bring home on the bus. If your student wishes to bring their project home, please e-mail Mrs. Schmidt at schmidt@hemlockps.com. She will work out a time with you to have the project picked up or dropped off to you. (There is no rush on this - projects will be saved until the end of the school year, if need be.) A picture can also be e-mailed home instead if pick-up or drop-off is not an option. :)
