This week, our upper level art students teamed up with the kindergarten classes for a tie-dye t-shirt extravaganza. 🎨 They explored warm and cool colors, and learned what happens when you mix too many colors together.
Both the little kids and big kids had a blast... and it's clear some of the big kids had an extra fun time!

This week's #StaffSpotlight is on the beloved Becky Killingbeck, our School Nurse here are Hemlock Public School District for the past 2 1/2 years.
We want you to get to know Nurse Becky a little better, so here are some fun facts you may not know about her:
• She loves fixing small appliances, from dishwashers to dryers. She just loves taking things apart, figuring out what needs to be fixed, and putting them back together.
• If a movie was made of her life, she'd want Jennifer Garner, her favorite actress, to play her.
• As a child she wanted to be a teacher or a nurse. Being the school nurse allows her the opportunity to do both. She gets to teach kids about keeping their bodies healthy - her most favorite thing about her job!
• What superlative would have been given to her in school? "Band wannabe". When she went to high school, band wasn't cool. All her friends were in band, but she wasn't even cool enough to be in band. True story.
• We asked her what accomplishment fills her with pride so far this year, and she said, "My family. Being a wife of 27 years, being a mom of 23 years. Watching my 4 children grow and become kindhearted humans beings. Seeing all the things they've pursued and been involved in. Watching my kids and my husband bring their dreams to life."
• If she were to win the lottery and give up her position at HPSD, she'd travel first, as she loves exploring and seeing new places. Then she would come back home and open up a bakery with all the yummy things she enjoyed while traveling.
We’re grateful you’re part of the Huskie Pack, Nurse Becky. Thank you for all you do to keep our incredible students healthy.

It's #TeacherFeatureTuesday and today we're featuring the brilliant Brady Hagenow, who is in his first year of teaching here at K.C. Ling Elementary, and is enjoying educating our 3rd graders.
We wanted you to get to know Mr. Hagenow a little better, so here are some fun facts about him:
• A song he could listen to on repeat is Dallas by Alan Jackson.
• We asked him what his students might be surprised to find out about him, and he shared, "...that I am in a Rock Band, called the Whiskey Six. Check Facebook and Instagram for upcoming shows".
• His worst fashion decision? He confessed that his hair right now is the longest it has ever been. "It looks pretty bad, but haircuts are too expensive".
• A quote he lives his life by is from Jeremiah 29:11, “'For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the Lord, 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future'”.
• A recipe he can cook to perfection? Why, Red Baron Frozen Pizza. He kindly shared the coveted recipe: Step 1: Set oven to 400 degrees, Step 2: Place pizza on oven rack, Step 3: Cook for 17 minutes, Step 4: Eat.
We’re delighted to have you in our Huskie Pack, Mr. Hagenow!
