The young 5’s students in Miss Kenny's class had a great time investigating their pumpkins. They took part in learning about the parts of a pumpkin, made predictions about what they would find inside, counted the seeds, and much more.

Students in Mrs. Kaczynski's Spanish 2 class visited the Detroit Institute of Arts to experience an “Ofrendas” exhibit. This was sponsored by the Mexican consulate in honor of Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead).
The exhibit not only portrayed traditional DOD ofrendas, but also unique artistic renditions outside the box. Students had a chance to see an original mural by Diego Rivera encompassing an entire room representing the Industrial Revolution and diversity in Detroit, along with works of art by other famous Hispanic artists like Frida Kahlo, Pablo Picasso and Salvador Dalí. What a great day to be a Huskie!

This week's #StaffSpotlight is on the dedicated Dean Keeler, head custodian of the night shift at Hemlock High School.
Other than being known as Deano as a child, here are some fun nuggets of information you may not know about him:
• His favorite part of his job is doing outdoor work, while his least favorite part is pausing to pick up trash while mowing.
• We asked him who would play him if a movie was made of his life, and he felt Clint Eastwood would do the best job.
• If he won the lottery and decided to give up his position at HPSD, he'd spend his days fishing and camping more, and doing other fun outdoorsy things.
• Something he’s proud of accomplishing thus far this year is rust proofing the underside of his truck and fixing all the rust holes on the fenders.
• A hidden talent he has is drawing and wood burning.
• What did he want to be when he grew up? He said simply, ”a hard worker”. We would say he’s succeeded, and we’re so thankful for his consistency, commitment and dedication to his vocation.
We’re grateful you’re part of the Huskie Pack, Dean!

It's #TeacherFeature Tuesday and today we're featuring the talented Tiffany Green, a 3rd Grade teacher at K.C. Ling Elementary.
Apart from being famous for her no bake cookies, and being a Hemlock alumnus herself, here are some other fun facts to know about Mrs. Green:
• Her favorite subjects in school were spelling and math. She was always good at memorizing how to spell words and qualified for the Knights of Columbus Spelling Bee in middle school. Math was another favorite subject of hers, algebra specifically, as she found solving equations fun!
• She has always wanted to be a teacher. She loved to play school at home in the summer, and naturally, was consistently the teacher. She also shared that she had many teachers while attending Hemlock Public School District that positively influenced her to pursue a career in education.
• If she won the lottery she’d likely retire early and buy a beachfront home in the south, soak up as much sunshine as possible, and enjoy entertaining friends and family.
• She hopes her students remember her as a teacher who cares about each and every student. Her goal is to create an environment where her students feel safe to take risks, valued as a member of their classroom, and motivated to be the best version of themselves possible.
Once a huskie, always a huskie. We're so grateful to still have you in our Huskie Pack, Mrs. Green.

This week's #StaffSpotlight is on the lovely Linsey Wardin, our Athletic Secretary here at Hemlock Public School District.
In addition to being called Linsey Lou as a child, here are some fun things you may not know about her:
• Her favorite part of her job is definitely the kids, while her least favorite part is the 7:00 am start time.
• A song she could listen to on repeat is Stuck with You by Huey Lewis and the News.
• We asked her where and when she would go if she could time travel and believe it or not, she said… Hemlock, Michigan! She’d love to observe the process of it becoming a village and every decade afterwards. She finds local history so fascinating.
• Growing up she wanted to be a history teacher, but if she won the lottery and didn’t have to work anymore, she’d choose to enjoy her family the only way she knows how…by working on their dairy farm. She’d lean towards only playing with a few fun toys like the autosteer, milking robots, and maybe an old tractor or two.
• She thinks the best Christmas movie ever made is Die Hard. Between the action, humor, family and the holidays...what is not to love?
We’re grateful you’re part of the Huskie Pack, Linsey. Thanks for all you do to keep things running smoothly for our student-athletes at HPSD!
