Welcome to Camp Hammis 🏕️

Mrs. Hammis’ kindergarten campers traded desks for desk tents and spent the day cozying up in pajamas with their favorite stuffies and blankets. From mini campfires around the classroom to tasty s’mores snacks and fun camping-themed activities, it was a day full of smiles, imagination, and memory-making learning experiences.

These are the moments our students will remember for years to come.

Today, we pause to remember and honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country.

Their sacrifice made possible the freedoms we enjoy each day, including the opportunity to learn, grow, and gather together as a community.

We remember. We honor. We are grateful.

Alumni Spotlight 🎓 Gary Gariglio, a 1981 Hemlock graduate, was active in track, skiing, and cross country. A lifelong member of the Hemlock community, he values the strong sense of hometown pride and the many memories built alongside classmates and family.

After graduating, Gary earned both an Electrical Engineering degree and a Business degree from Michigan Technological University. He credits Hemlock with instilling a strong work ethic, a solid education, and the ability to collaborate—skills that have served him throughout his career.

Inspired by many impactful educators, as well as his father who served as Hemlock’s superintendent for 20 years, Gary carried those lessons forward into his professional life.

Today, Gary is the President of Interpower Induction, a global supplier of specialty equipment. Since starting the company in 1995, it has grown to over 300 employees, with multiple manufacturing plants across the world.

His advice for current Huskies: “Learn all subjects the best that you can—you never know which one you may end up using. And take advantage of opportunities like the Lockwood STEM Center.”

Another sweet memory made at Hemlock Elementary 🍭 “Sugar Beet Bob” — also known as Mrs. Klopf’s dad — stopped by to teach our preschool, Young 5s, and kindergarten students all about sugar beets and how sugar is made. A retired employee of Michigan Sugar, he brought both knowledge and a favorite specialty treat…fresh cotton candy.

A big thank you to our parent volunteers and Michigan Sugar for donating the machine rental and supplies to make this fun-filled day possible.

Mrs. Chludil’s Young 5s classroom has been bringing learning to life in the best way 🐣

Thanks to a generous donation from the Hemlock Business Association, students explored farm life through dramatic play and even watched 9 chicks hatch right in their classroom. From learning how farms support our everyday lives to discovering how to care for animals, this unit has been hands-on, engaging, and full of excitement.

Safe to say, this has been one of their most engaging reading units yet.

At Hemlock, leadership does not begin with talking.
It begins with listening.

We lean in.
We ask questions.
We seek to understand before we seek to be understood.

Because when people feel heard, trust grows.
When trust grows, great things happen for kids.

That spirit helped shape our vision for 2026 and Beyond.

We listen.
We learn.
We lead forward together.

That is the Huskie Pack way.

Innovate. Collaborate. Educate.

This is preschool on mission at Hemlock Public School District.

Our youngest Huskies stepped into the Lockwood STEM Center and experienced the wonder of building, creating, exploring, and imagining what could be possible.

This is not babysitting.

This is not random play.

This is the start of something bigger.

We are inspiring the next generation of history makers and world shakers, one curious mind at a time. From LEGOs to robotics, from questions to discovery, from little hands to big ideas, this is what the future looks like in Hemlock.

Small Town. Big Opportunities.

Stewardship shows up in the way we care for one another. In hallways, classrooms, buses, and playgrounds—friendship and belonging are being built every day.

We don’t take lightly the responsibility of creating a place where every student feels seen, valued, and connected. This is what makes Hemlock feel like home.

Help us welcome a familiar face back to Hemlock: Kassie Hensler.

A proud HHS Class of 2025 graduate, Kassie has already earned her associate’s degree from Delta and is headed to Michigan State this fall to pursue her bachelor’s. This summer, she’ll be splitting her time between our admin and tech offices—bringing her robotics experience into the tech department (you may recognize her from our robotics billboards) and even taking to the skies as she captures drone footage for the district.

We’re excited to have Kassie back with us and can’t wait to see all she brings to our team.

Brené Brown reminds us that we are “most alive when we’re connected to others.” It’s in moments like these - on the playground, in shared laughter, and growing friendships - that the heart of public education comes to life.

Our schools are more than places to learn; they’re places to belong, connect, and grow together.
