Hemlock Public School District - Innovate, Collaborate, Educate

Congrats to the Hemlock Lady Varsity Basketball Team on a hard-earned 50–45 win over a tough, ranked Beaverton squad. That was grit, composure, and teamwork for four quarters against a quality opponent. Big win, ladies. Keep rolling. #PullTheSled

The day after the Super Bowl always comes with a little extra caffeine and a lot of opinions.

We fully expected the Lions to be playing last night, but instead, our team showed up this morning for our final professional development day of the 2025–2026 school year—focused, engaged, and ready to finish strong.

We kicked things off the right way with the Eat-’Em-Up mini donut trailer from Schomaker Farms, which instantly boosted morale (and sugar levels). Lunch was just as impressive with an amazing soup and salad bar, capped off with cupcake desserts prepared by our own Hemlock Food Service team. Well fed and well cared for.

This year’s work has centered on what matters most:
✔️ Explicit instruction
✔️ Attendance
✔️ Practical, useful strategies teachers can take straight back to their classrooms

No fluff. No hype. Just real tools, real conversations, and a shared commitment to getting better for kids.

Proud of this team for leaning in—even the Monday after the Super Bowl. That’s how progress happens.

It's National Pizza Day 🍕 Naturally, Hutch couldn’t resist a slice loaded with all the toppings. And now we have to know… what’s your go-to pizza order? Pineapple? Anchovies? Green or black olives? Drop your favorites in the comments.

Today was one of those reminders of why schools matter beyond the classroom. Senior Bingo filled the room with laughter, friendly competition, and a whole lot of joy. From the suspense of the next number being called to the smiles (and a few cheers) when someone yelled “Bingo,” it was clear this was about more than the game. It was about connection. Seeing our seniors gathered together, sharing stories, laughs, and a little good-natured trash talk, is exactly what community looks like at Hemlock. Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the afternoon so special. We already can’t wait to do it again.

📅 Just a friendly reminder, Huskie families — there is no school today, Monday, February 9th, as our staff spend the day learning, growing, and preparing to serve students even better through professional development.

We look forward to seeing our Huskies back with the pack tomorrow.

💯 Ms. Kelly’s class celebrated a big milestone yesterday as our young Huskies marked the 100th day of school with creativity, giggles, and plenty of counting to 100. From fun outfits to hands-on activities, it was a day filled with learning and delight.

We’re so proud of how far these students have come in just 100 days.

It’s #ThrowbackThursday 🕰️ We’re flipping back to the 2007 yearbook to spotlight our wrestling team and boys’ bowling - led by none other than Mr. Krueger, who’s still at Hemlock today teaching math at the high school. 🎳

Counting, searching, and learning...en español 🇪🇸 Our 6th graders recently turned Spanish class into a scavenger hunt as they practiced numbers by counting objects around the room. From the mini lights along the backboard to the colorful papel picado hanging from the ceiling, learning came to life in a fun, hands-on way.

Lots of smiles. Lots of counting. Lots of learning.
