Sometimes things just fit perfectly together… like two peas in a pod. 🌱

10th grader Josie Wolgast hand-built this ceramic planter in Art 1, and with her summer job at a greenhouse, she knew exactly what belonged inside it. Her handmade creation turned out to be the perfect home for these little succulents. 🪴

Creativity blooming both in and out of the classroom.

Please join us in congratulating Stacey Langworthy on her new role as MTSS Interventionist supporting literacy, intervention, and instructional collaboration across Hemlock Public School District.

Stacey has been part of the Huskie Pack for more than 20 years, serving students both in the middle school and at K.C. Ling Elementary. Many of you know her as a thoughtful educator, a strong teammate, and someone who cares deeply about kids.

As we continue growing our MTSS work across the district, Stacey’s experience in literacy, intervention, collaboration, and student support makes her a great fit for this role. We’re excited to have her helping lead this work alongside our staff and students.

Congratulations, Stacey. We’re excited for what’s ahead.

Transformation takes vision—but also trust. We are so thankful for a community that believes in our students, supports our growth, and walks alongside us through change.

We are stewarding not just buildings and budgets, but a legacy for future Huskies. And we are excited for what comes next.

Real leadership is not having all the answers.
Real leadership is having the humility to listen.

To students.
To staff.
To parents.
To our community.

At Hemlock, every conversation matters because every voice matters.
Those voices helped shape our district vision for the future.

Take a look at Hemlock 2026 and Beyond

We lean in.
We listen.
We learn.
And we lead with purpose.

Forward together. Always.

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.

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.

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.
