The Hemet Museum holds tours throughout the school year for third grade students of the Hemet Unified School District. Contact our Hemet Museum School Tour Coordinator, at Tours@TheHemetMuseum.org to schedule a tour.
These tours teach students about the rich heritage of Hemet and the entire San Jacinto Valley and help them to treasure the rich historical resource that is the Hemet Museum. Darlene Ramirez is the Director of the Hemet Museum School Tour Program and is a Board member of the Hemet Heritage Foundation. Darlene does a wonderful job educating our third graders about Hemet’s history and other local history. After Darlene gives a brief talk the students go on a scavenger hunt. They also go outside to different hands-on workstations to learn how things were done in the past.
If you are interested in being a School Tour Volunteer, contact our Hemet Museum School Tour Coordinator. We are always looking for enthusiastic volunteers to share our cities amazing history with these students.
