Why Hemlock

Hemlock Public School District has so many exceptional opportunities to offer students and their families. The district encourages parents to schedule a conversation with the building principal(s) if they are considering attending for the 2021-22 school year. 

Board President Wesener, said, “There has never been a better time to be a huskie!  I continue to be amazed at all the offerings available to our students while we maintaining that small town, personalized feel, along with excellent educational opportunities.” 

The district has been fortunate to consistently maintain enrollment higher than projection for the last several years. It appears that some families have moved into the district while others have selected school of choice as an option.  Hemlock is known to be a safe and friendly school with excellent academics and lots of extra-curricular opportunities for students. 

Superintendent Don Killingbeck said, “Parents are selecting to move into the community or use the school choice option because they want their children to experience the quality education and caring staff that Hemlock is known for.” 

The district launched a childcare center, early middle college program, and has a 1:1 computing initiative in place to support anywhere, anytime, and anyplace learning.  Along, with a full offering of athletics, performing arts, industrial arts, and robotics.  Hemlock Public School District is focused on continuous improvement and service to families.
