The South Dakota School of Mines and Technology student chapter of the American Chemical Society has had an ongoing commitment of outreach in its isolated community. On average, over 1000 students from the ages of 4 to 18 are encouraged to pursue a STEM career by exposing them to chemistry demonstrations. This year there was a focus on performing assemblies at local elementary schools.  Feedback was asked for and received of the teachers of these groups.  The hope is that this feedback will allow us to help gauge the significance of the event for the young students as well as help improve future outreach activities.
