Hemlock Public School District

🌱 Happy Earth Day from Ms. Kelly’s kindergarten class 🌎 Today our students celebrated by getting a little messy and a lot creative, making delicious dirt pudding and heading outside for an exciting Earth Day scavenger hunt. From exploring nature to learning how we can take better care of our planet, it was a day full of fun, curiosity, and hands-on learning.

We love seeing our students connect with the world around them.

Seven students from our Hemlock High School Teacher Cadet Program spent the day at Saginaw Valley State University’s College of Education, getting a firsthand look at what a future in teaching can hold.

From exploring degree pathways to connecting their current hands-on Cadet experiences with real-world classroom expectations, students walked away with a clearer picture of how their skills today are already shaping their success tomorrow.

Opportunities like this are what “small town, big opportunities” looks like in action—preparing future educators right here in Hemlock. 🍎📚

Serving up something special for our staff this morning ☀️🥞 Our Huskie Food Truck team hit all four buildings - catching our bus drivers as they came through, too - delivering wagon-loads of pancake breakfasts right to classrooms, complete with bacon, sausage, and orange juice.

A little sunshine and a lot of delicious to start the day.

This isn't just an art job, it is a shot at shaping the next generation of creators.

Hemlock Public School District is seeking an art teacher who brings energy, creativity, and presence to the classroom. Someone who can connect with kids, collaborate with staff, and turn ideas into experiences.

This position is about impact. Across buildings. Across grade levels. Across the student experience.

We are investing in our art program because we believe creativity is not an extra. It is essential. The right person will help expand opportunities at the secondary level, strengthen programming across the district, and elevate what students experience every day.

We are also growing our Art Department.
If we find the right person, this becomes a team of three, with dedicated art educators at the elementary, middle school, and high school levels. That is not by accident. That is by design.

We are looking for someone who is:
Strong in the classroom
Great with kids
Collaborative with adults
Comfortable with technology and modern design
Able to build something, not just maintain it

If you are early in your career and already making noise, or a veteran ready to do your best work, this could be your spot.

Join a district that is moving forward.
Join a team that supports each other.
Join the Huskie Pack.

Monday Memory.

2023 State Championship. The lights were bright, the moment was big, and our Huskies delivered. Medal still around her neck, heart still racing, and already representing Hemlock with class in the postgame spotlight.

This is what it looks like when preparation meets opportunity.

Small Town. Big Stage. Huskies show up. #PullTheSled

Support doesn’t take the summer off, and neither do we.

Through our partnership with Gaggle ReachOut, our students have access to a 24/7 crisis line where they can call or text anytime, day or night. Whether they’re feeling overwhelmed, unsure where to turn, or simply need someone to listen, help is always within reach.

☎️ Find out more here: hemlockps.com/article/1490121

As a whole child school, we are committed to caring for the physical, academic, mental, and emotional well-being of every Huskie - meeting students where they are, whenever they need it most.

As we head into the summer months, when feelings of loneliness or isolation can increase, we encourage families to keep this resource close. Sometimes, one conversation can make all the difference.

K.C. Ling Elementary Classroom Makeovers ✨ Superintendent Killingbeck and our Curriculum & Instruction Director, Lindy Beckman, recently stopped by to deliver classroom makeovers to three classrooms, featuring new items and updates requested by the teachers themselves. Ms. Baldwin’s and Mrs. Schmidt’s students returned from lunch to the exciting deliveries, while Ms. Bouchard’s class got to experience it in real time.

Moments like these make learning spaces even more special.

States Update: First match of the day and the Huskie Pack wasted no time making a statement. Hemlock’s Gray Matter 5712 opened strong, battling in a tight, back-and-forth match that went right down to the wire. When it was all said and done, they found a way to get it done and put a check mark in the W column with a 330–323 win. Grit. Focus. Execution. That is how you start a day. #PullTheSled

Big time congratulations to Assistant Principal Amanda Sensabaugh on graduating from the Dale Carnegie leadership program.

This is what it looks like to keep growing, even when you are already doing the work at a high level. Amanda continues to invest in herself so she can better serve our students, staff, and families, and that matters.

We appreciate our partnership with Dale Carnegie and Wendy Groll for helping create opportunities like this. Strong leaders do not just happen. They are developed, challenged, and refined over time.

We are proud of Amanda for stepping up, putting in the time, and continuing to grow as a leader. The Huskie Pack is better because of it.

Hemlock Public School District Hall of Fame EST. 2022

Always a great day when members of the Huskie Pack come back home and pour into the next generation.

We were excited to welcome Hemlock alum Anthony Hagarty from the Class of 2021 to our MindTrekkers event in partnership with Michigan Tech. Anthony is now serving as General Manager of “KVA Jomar Induction”, the heat treat tooling division of Interpower Induction, a company owned and operated by fellow alum Gary Gariglio, and is already making a strong impact in the world of manufacturing and innovation.

Anthony spent time connecting with our students and sharing the incredible work happening at Interpower Induction, giving them a firsthand look at the opportunities that exist right here in our region and beyond.

This is what it is all about. Our graduates are going out, doing great things, and coming back to inspire the next group to keep pulling the sled forward.
