Many of the students attending SS. Cyril& Methodius School do their banking with Hemlock Bank. A school banking program has been offered to all our students this year. Students are able to make deposits during the school day and Hemlock employees have been very patient and kind. Recently two employees from the bank offered a mini-class to the 7th and 8th graders on Savings Bonds and the newly designed quarters from the U.S. mint.  Listed below are the sites they visited.
