Congratulations to Cali Kade on receiving the Turnaround Award through the Saginaw ISD! 🎉

Nominated by Hemlock Virtual teacher Shawn Enright, Cali’s story is one of determination, perseverance, and growth.

Cali joined Hemlock Virtual High School during the fall of her junior year, already behind in credits, but through an incredible work ethic and commitment to her goals, she is now on track to graduate on time this year.

While balancing school and work, Cali consistently stood out through her engagement, thoughtful contributions, and dedication to her education.

After graduation, she plans to pursue a degree in early childhood education, where her passion for helping others will continue to make a difference.

We are so proud of you, Cali, and all that you have accomplished!

Home routines can support mental wellness more than we realize.

Try building consistency with:
• Regular sleep schedules
• Homework/study time
• Device-free family time
• Time to relax and recharge

Structure creates stability - and stability supports mental health.
Small changes at home can have a big impact.

Huskies and families, mental health starts with conversation.

A simple check-in can make a big difference:
• “How was your day, really?”
• “What’s been stressing you out lately?”
• “How can I support you?”

Listening without judgment builds trust and connection.

At Hemlock High School, we know strong support at home helps students thrive.
