This week's #StaffSpotlight is on the joyful Jessica Thomas, one of the friendly faces in our food service department here at Hemlock Public School District.
We wanted you to get to know this her a little better, so here are some fun nuggets of information you may not know about her:
• Her nickname as a child was Jellybean.
• She could listen to anything by Garth Brooks on repeat.
• If she won the lottery and didn't have to work, she'd open a daycare center and do some traveling.
• As a child, she wanted to be a teacher when she grew up.
• Her favorite animals are dogs.
We’re grateful you’re part of the Huskie Pack, Jessica.

Congratulations to the National Champions: the U of M Football team.
It's #TeacherFeature Tuesday and today we're featuring the jovial Jacquelyn Ellithorpe, our 5th grade math and science teacher here at Hemlock Middle School.
We wanted you to get to know Mrs. Ellithorpe a little better, so here are some fun facts about her:
• Her favorite subject in school was English Language Arts.
• After the Comedy Central "Substitute Teacher" video came out, everyone started calling her Jay-quel-in as a nickname.
• If she won the lottery and decided to give up teaching, she’d want to own a bookstore/coffee shop/flower shop/cat café (where, of course, you could adopt the cats too). She wants to open a huge place where she can have all the things she loves in one place.
• Her worst fashion decision ever was cutting her own side bangs in middle school.
• Her favorite animal is a panda.
We’re so thrilled to have you in our Huskie Pack, Mrs. Ellithorpe!

Beyond the notes, being a part of band is a journey of camaraderie, discipline, and passion. 🎶 In the words of Plato, "Music is a more potent instrument than any other for education because rhythm and harmony find their way into the inward places of the soul".

This week's #StaffSpotlight is on the awesome Alex Haltom, our Director of Innovation, Technology, and Media Services ("Tech Wizard") here at Hemlock Public School District.
We wanted you to get to know this delightful Hemlock grad a little better, so here are some fun nuggets of information you may not know about him:
• His favorite thing about his job is encountering new challenges every day. His least favorite thing was when the business department took his parking spot.
• As a child, he wanted to be a Professional Baseball player, Firefighter, and Doctor all at once. He quickly discovered how impossible that would be.
• We asked him which famous actor would play him in the movie of his life, and he said: Shaq. "...because, why the heck not?? It's Shaq". Fair enough, Alex.
• What can he cook to perfection, you might wonder? Frozen pizza. Red Baron, Tombstone, Digiornio, you name it.
• His childhood nickname was 'Big Al'.
We’re grateful you’re part of the Huskie Pack, Alex.
