Hemlock Public School District - Innovate, Collaborate, Educate

As we begin developing the 4th iteration of our Strategic Plan, we are doing what matters most first.

We are listening.

Before the goals.
Before the timelines.
Before the action steps.

We are making sure student voices and staff voices are shaping the direction of Hemlock Public School District.

Our secret weapon is not a new program.
It is not a new initiative.
It is not a glossy document.

It is listening.

Listening to what is working.
Listening to where we can improve.
Listening to the ideas that will move us forward together.

The best strategic plans are not written in isolation. They are built with the people who live the work every single day.

If you are a student or staff member, your voice matters in this process. Do not hesitate to contact our office at 989.642.5282 for more information. 

Small Town. Big Opportunities.

Let’s build the next chapter together.

Please join us in welcoming Dana Buckley to the Huskie Pack. As our High School offices continue to grow in opportunity and impact, having the right people in the right seats makes all the difference. Dana will be serving as our AM Secretary, supporting both the Reg Rye Learning Center and the main High School office. In this role, she will assist our Dean of Students, Counseling Center, Early Middle College, Hemlock Virtual, and the many day-to-day needs that keep our offices running smoothly. This position touches so many important areas of student life, and we are grateful to have Dana helping anchor that work each morning.

In a school system, the front office is often the heartbeat of the building. It is where questions get answered, problems get solved, and students and families feel seen and supported. Dana brings a steady presence, a willingness to help wherever needed, and a genuine commitment to serving others. We are excited to welcome her to this important role and to the continued work of supporting our students, staff, and families.

✈️ We were honored to host the Michigan Aerospace Association at Hemlock High School, where students were invited to glimpse the expanding horizons of the aerospace industry.

Students learned about careers in aviation and explored the new e-sport, Drone Soccer — a fast-paced competition that builds real-world drone piloting and aviation skills.

It’s a beautiful thing to watch curiosity meet opportunity—and to know that the next generation is already reaching for the sky.

Love in the Halls of Hemlock 🥂 Keith & Katrina Dailey

Rounding out our School Sweethearts feature this year is a story that began long before high school ever started. Keith Dailey and Katrina (Tessin) Dailey first met in Mrs. Coni Maisano’s 3rd grade classroom and have been side by side ever since.

Both graduates of the Class of 1999, their friendship grew through the years, filled with late nights at midnight movies and movie marathons with friends—simple memories that became the foundation of something lasting.

Now, 27 years together and nearly 23 years of marriage later, Keith and Katrina’s journey is a beautiful reminder that sometimes the best love stories begin in the most unexpected places… like a third grade classroom at Hemlock.

From childhood classmates to lifelong partners, their story is rooted deeply in Husky history.

🍩 Nobody likes taxes, but understanding them helps. Join us tomorrow, February 18 at 7:45 AM for Donuts with Don + Denise, an informal, informative conversation about which taxes are related to Hemlock Public School District… and which are not.

Come grab a donut, ask questions, and leave with clarity. We’d love to see you there.

✨ The Hemlock High School Student Council is hosting a Dress Sale on Saturday, February 21, from 10:00 AM–2:00 PM in the High School Commons!

We’re now collecting gently used Homecoming and Prom dresses, shoes, and purses through this Friday. 👗 Community members may drop items off at the high school front office, and current students can bring items to Room 13 to Mrs. Provoast or Mrs. Bell.

Items should be on a hanger and include the seller’s name, phone number, and asking price. Sellers set their own prices, and Student Council will retain 20% of each sale to support student activities—helping students earn money toward future formalwear while making room in their closets.

With Prom on April 11, this is a great opportunity to shop affordably or pass along dresses to another Huskie. Graduates and community members are encouraged to participate.

• Parking: Little Elementary lot
• Entrance: South side of the high school near the bus drop-off
