Hemlock Public School District - Innovate, Collaborate, Educate

It's #TeacherFeature Tuesday, and today we're featuring our fabulous fitness instructor, Matt Bauer. He teaches Elite Fitness and Physical Education here at Hemlock High School and has taught Biology (and Advanced Bio) in previous years. Along with being a huge Michigan fan, here are a few other things you may not know about Mr. Bauer... • If he could be any Disney character, he'd be Winnie-the-Pooh because he's "friendly and easy to get along with". • He could listen to Cornbread by Dave Matthews Band on repeat. • As a child he wanted to be a professional athlete. • The quote he lives his life by is: "You can’t live a perfect day without doing something for someone else who can’t repay you “ from John Wooden. Lastly, we asked him what he would do if he won the lottery and didn't have to work anymore and he said he'd "start up a college basketball team at a school that didn’t already have a program and be their coach". We're lucky to have you, Coach Bauer! #Huskietastic #Since1863 #HPSDPackLeader

Had such a great time hosting the team members from Senator Peters' office at the Lockwood STEM Center today! It was wonderful to have the opportunity to showcase the exciting projects our students have been working on and discuss the importance of STEM education. Thank you for visiting us, and we hope to see you again soon! #STEMeducation #LockwoodSTEMCenter #SenatorPetersOffice #collaboration

Today's #StaffSpotlight is on Zach Bauer, our Food Service Director. He's a pretty cool food dude, so we wanted you to get to know him a little better... • He loves singing in the kitchen while prepping lunch • He could listen to 'Don't Stop Me Now' by Queen on repeat • He's acted in several plays and musicals • He loves watching kids get excited over new lunch options and is thrilled to have moved away from preprocessed foods and has instead started cooking from scratch. • His Disney character would be Simba (because he's the main event and he stands up for what's right) Hemlock Public School District is honored to have you in our pack, Zach! #PackLeaders #Huskietastic #BetterTogether #Since1863

Hey pack, today is #NationalPetDay and while our personal favorite might be obvious, we want to know who you're cuddling and celebrating today? #HuskiesForTheWin #Huskietastic

It's #TeacherFeature Tuesday, and today we're featuring our marvelous middle school teacher, Dana Bishop. She's been teaching 6th + 8th grade social studies here at Hemlock Public School District for almost 3 years. Along with being a twin mama, here are a few other things you may not know about Mrs. Bishop... • If she could be any Disney character, she'd be Anna from Frozen..."Because I'm also a feisty redhead, who is smart, awkward, and always believes in the best in people". • She could listen to the Hamilton soundtrack on repeat. • The quote she lives her life by is: "No one can make you feel inferior without your consent" from Eleanor Roosevelt. • If she won the lottery and gave up teaching, she'd own and operate a Hallmark Store because she loves "giving cards and wrapping presents to perfection." Lastly, we asked her what she thought her kids would remember her and her class by and she said, "I think my students will remember that George Washington is, and will forever be, my boyfriend" 😉 #Huskietastic #Since1863 #HPSDPackLeader

We hope your Easter break has been #Huskietastic. The good news is...it's not over yet. We'll see you back tomorrow, Huskie Pack! #EasterBreak #HemlockStrong

Last week, Hemlock High Schools' Students Leading Students organized a food drive for a local Hemlock family. These students were able to provide an Easter holiday dinner basket with all the "fixings", and enough for leftovers. Mrs. Mulvaney, an SLS Advisor, shared that these great students not only help each other but recognize the needs of people around them and support those in the community. #BetterTogether #HemlockStrong

Students in Mrs. Whitford's economics class recently got to work on a "golf ball assembly line" to demonstrate the Law of Diminishing Marginal Returns. They even got Mr. Snider to participate! #Huskietastic #Educate #Collaborate #Since1863

It's #TeacherFeature Tuesday, and today we're featuring our fabulous Band Teacher, Charles Bicigo. He's been teaching 5th - 12th grade band here at Hemlock Public School District for 3 years. Other than rocking the best man bun on staff, here are a few other things you may not know about Mr. Bicigo... • If he could be any Disney character, he'd be Robin Williams' "Genie" from Aladdin, "because he's a major goofball and tries to make everyone happy!" • His spirit animal is a Grizzly Bear • The quote he lives his life by is: "The most important note you play is the next one" • If he won the lottery and gave up teaching, he'd "Gig as much as possible, and maybe open up a Pho/Ramen Restaurant". Stay tuned for an OTS episode in the future where Mr. Bicigo will teach us his favorite Pho recipe. #Huskietastic #Since1863 #HPSDPackLeader

9th grade students in Mrs. Whitford's U.S. History class recently completed their "Political Leaders of WWII" poster project. They added info, like birth/death dates, education, rise to political status, and famous quotes, to these lifesize posters. #Huskietastic #Since1863

Welcome back, huskies! As you're coming through town, keep your eyes peeled for some exciting changes happening on the wall at Elm and M46. Kudos to Mrs. Woodcock and her creative crew. We can't wait to see what you have up your artsy sleeves! #Huskietastic #Since1863

While we hope your Spring Break has rocked, we're looking forward to having our huskie pack back together again on Monday. Our hallways just aren't the same without you in them. #HemlockRocks #BetterTogether #SpringBreak2023
