Like children everywhere, they learn most effectively when they are challenged and having fun. We are a partnership of students, parents, scientists,engineers and educators who have come together to help foster this interest in science. We believe children are motivated to learn when their ideas are cultivated through the fun of designing and developing experiments. Schmahl Science Workshops puts the "sizzle" back into science. 5 4 24 25 0 211141 161018 419064 447822 0 904 0 631109 608840 0 0 374282 417313 0 0 218424 209897 592706 627210 38403 -18370 769713 714699 139655 127217 630058 587482 The children of Schmahl Science Workshops love science.

Each workshop integrates the concepts and skills measured in California's STAR English-Language Arts, Integrated Mathematics, and Science standards, providing teachers with the opportunity to simultaneously cover multiple subjects and thereby conserve valuable time. Middle and high school workshops support science teachers by bringing in workshops at key times during each unit of science instruction and providing students with hands-on activities and experiments that are not commonly available. 140736 92514 Individual Research Program (IRP - Formerly ASRP):This is a seventeen-year-old innovative program that prepares sixth through twelfth grade students to consider science as a viable career option and to major in science in college. IRP provides an opportunity for bright young students to develop a passion for science by conducting authentic research and producing quality projects. In 15 years, hundreds of students have received awards for research projects. Currently, eight IRP students are working with volunteer patent attorneys to patent their discoveries. One young IRP scientist was recently published in the Nature journal. 73528 52609 SEMINAR PROGRAM (Formerly FSRP)The Seminar Program is an expansion of our Fundamental Science Research Program. Both the nature and the process of science are taught in our Seminars. These are two different aspects of science. The nature of science deals with issues in the philosophy, sociology, and history of science. It includes concerns, such as the nature or attributes of scientific knowledge itself -- e.g., that scientific knowledge is durable, but is always inherently subject to change. The process of science addresses what scientists do in order to develop that knowledge. The objective of the Seminar Research Program is to provide students with practical application of science and engineering concepts to equip students with fundamental knowledge that students need to succeed. 524383 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false true 3 0 true 24 true false false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false false false false X 5 4 true false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true false false CA X X BELINDA SCHMAHL 4082817595 1650 SENTER ROAD SAN JOSE CA 951122599 BELINDA E LOWE SCHMAHL CEO 40.00 0.00 X X 36401 0 0 STUART ROSENBERG BOARD MEMBER 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 JANE HUYHN BOARD MEMBER 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 KEN SCHMAHL Chairman 10.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 LUC MOYEN BOARD MEMBER 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 MICHELLE NOVOTNY BOARD MEMBER 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 36401 0 false false false 0 161018 36557 161018 INDIVIDUAL RESEARCH (IRP) 92514 92514 OUTREACH /CLASSROOM 302699 302699 SEMINAR 52609 52609 447822 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 608840 447822 0 0 0 0 25868 25868 0 348020 338020 10000 0 6491 6422 69 36934 35667 1267 0 0 6842 6842 0 0 0 0 1279 49 1230 2353 874 1479 540 119 421 0 21204 7794 13410 0 0 0 0 0 16878 16878 18947 13977 4970 Disposal of Obsolete Inventory 73639 73639 Workshops 17118 17118 Supplies-IRP 13383 13383 Finance Charges 7127 7127 30587 17321 13266 627210 524383 102827 0 18728 44196 0 32313 15571 57216 45703 0 0 0 625626 586451 6480 8219 217454 203402 28643 14052 0 0 0 0 707 507 769713 714699 118858 106980 20797 20237 139655 127217 X 609245 570911 20813 16571 630058 587482 769713 714699 X -18370 -6206 -18000 X true X false true false X 413935 218962 286804 211141 162259 1293101 494955 504358 433005 419064 447822 2299204 0 0 0 908890 723320 719809 630205 610081 3592305 62534 135507 108004 306045 0 62534 135507 108004 306045 3286260 0 0 0 390 459 4669 454 5972 909280 723779 724478 630659 610081 3598277 0.91330 0.76370 0.00000 X 32782 29710 3072 140908 144101 -3193 43764 29591 14173 14052 X Scientific Supplies 1 6528 List Price X Scientific Supplies 1 2871 List Price X Scientific Supplies 1 27158 List Price false false false Form 990, Part VI, Line 2: Description of Business or Family Relationship of Officers, Directors, Et Ken Schmahl is Belinda Schmahl's husband.
