Thanks to a wonderful donation from the Hemlock Pep Club, Mrs. Newvine’s ELA classroom library just expanded in a big way!

These new titles were added to help students discover independent reading books they truly love and ensure everyone has plenty of options to pick from.

You can see that our students are already diving in! Thank you, Hemlock Pep Club, for fueling our love for reading!

Who says learning Pre-Algebra can’t feel like game day? Mr. Stedry’s class is taking math off the textbook page and onto the field by launching their very own Fantasy Football League! From calculating averages to tracking points using custom formulas, students are discovering that math is the ultimate game-day strategy. Way to make learning fun, Mr. Stedry!

On Saturday, our middle school cross country team competed at the Trent Carter Windmill Invite in Breckenridge. The girls team won the meet, taking home a trophy! Great work, ladies, and congratulations on the team win!

The boys team was incomplete at this meet, so they unfortunately didn't score as a team, but our three runners ran amazing races!

Outstanding job to all of our cross country runners—we are so proud of each and every one of you!

When you think of our brand new Performing Arts Center your first thoughts are probably the expansive stage, beautiful seating, and state-of-the-art theater technology.

Everybody Counts: Welcome to Our 8th Grade Growth Community Project

Our fellow Huskies in Mrs. Slominski’s science and growth classes each filled out a piece of paper that, when put together with all the others, forms one large poster. Each piece represents a little bit of that person and when we put them all together, they spell out:

❤️ “In This Class, Everyone Matters.”

In this class, you aren't just taking up a seat—you are a crucial part of the puzzle. Every single person brings a unique story, an incredible perspective, and valuable strengths that make our group stronger.

Your Ideas Matter: Whether you're pitching a project strategy, sharing a creative solution, or asking a tough question, your voice deserves to be heard.

Your Growth Matters: We are here to learn, mess up, try again, and celebrate each other’s wins. Progress over perfection, always.

Your Story Matters: No two people in this room are the same, and that is our biggest advantage. Differences make our team resilient and innovative.

This post was written by students in the 8th grade Growth class.
