The Lockwood Stem Center, part of the Hemlock school district, recently opened their doors and have already accomplished so much. We are a big fan of everything they are doing at the Lockwood Stem Center and are very excited to see first-hand what great things these local students can and will continue to do. Find out more about what they're doing in their latest update and find how to help support their growth below. --- ###### ![](https://blog.fullertontool.com/hubfs/Helmock-Stem-Center-png.png)February Update Wow! Have you seen what all of us have accomplished in just one year? Our new STEAM building is complete and currently the home for Hemlock's Gray Matter high school team. The amount of support from all of you made this state-of-the-art building a reality. It is simply beautiful! Hemlock's Robotics program continues to grow, learn, and expand. We currently have a K-12 robotics program with over 30 registered adult mentors and 100 student team members. Because of COVID restrictions, we are not able to have anyone other than our students and mentors in the building, however we can't wait to share this with you. ![photos](https://blog.fullertontool.com/hs-fs/hubfs/photos.png?width=241&name=photos.png) The FRC robotics season is in motion. We have more students than ever programming and wiring. The desire to learn is amazing and exciting. Students are learning to program, wire, build, and prepare for the Chairman's Award. We will not be competing as we normally have, but FIRST has done a great job of making the "game" interesting and challenging. We will design a game, we will program the robot to complete a task, we will submit videos to demonstrate our skills. I know there have been challenges you have faced this past year and hope you continue to be strong and successful. Without your help, our program would not flourish. If possible, please consider helping to fund our robotics program. Your donation supports the following: - Kindergarten - 3rd Grade: FIRST Lego League Junior - 4th - 6th Grade: FIRST Lego League - 7th & 8th Grade: FIRST Tech Challenge - 2 teams at Hemlock Middle School - Hemlock High School - FIRST Robotics Competition - over 30 members Hemlock's Gray Matter is a State and World Qualifying FIRST Robotics Competition team. Thank you for considering sponsoring our programs with a donation that will benefit all of our teams. Contributions of any amount are welcome and greatly appreciated. We focus on providing our students with 21st century technical and hands-on skills including: - Strategic Planning - Computer Programming - Electronic Control Systems - Design & Marketing - Soldering - CNC Machining - Fabrication Your support will make our students' goals achievable while giving team members the valuable opportunity of being exposed to STEM careers. Our current budget for the FIRST Robotics teams (K-12) will exceed $40,000. Please consider sponsoring our team to support the growth of Hemlock's Robotics program.
