Developments in STEM!
Over the past year, our STEM programs have gained quite a bit of steam!
 
We have offered both STEM at the Library programs for all ages one Wednesday evening per month, as well as the STEM for Homeschool program one Tuesday afternoon per month for homeschool families. Both programs have been very popular!
 
For logistics and staffing reasons, we are making one small change to our STEM programming. Beginning in September, both programs will be offered on the same day. That means that STEM at the Library is moving to one Tuesday evening per month! Since both programs offer the same STEM experience each month, we thought it only made sense to do them both on the same day.
 
We look forward to continuing to offer our patrons fun and educational experiences in the world of STEM!
