Throwback to last week's Field Day 💦☀️ Nothing says the school year is wrapping up and summer is on the way quite like a day filled with sunshine, laughter, games, and plenty of water fun.

Our students had an amazing time making memories with friends, showing off their teamwork, and enjoying every minute of the excitement. From friendly competitions to splashes and smiles, it was the perfect way to celebrate another wonderful year together.

Thank you to our staff, volunteers, and families who helped make the day such a success. We love seeing our school community come together to create experiences our students will remember for years to come.

How many rubber bands does it take to explode a watermelon? 🍉💥

Mrs. Olinger's students were determined to find out.

After investigating like watermelon archaeologists and experimenting with pressure, they finally reached the breaking point at 417 rubber bands.

Science is fun. Science is messy. And sometimes, science is delicious. 😄🔬

Sunshine, laughter, and friendships that make the playground feel a little brighter every day. ☀️

K.C. Ling Elementary friends were all smiles—especially with Principal Snider joining in on the fun—as summer break gets closer by the minute. Just a few more days of making memories before we turn the page to summer adventures.

AP opportunities through Michigan Virtual give Hemlock students another way to push themselves academically and prepare for the future. While not the right fit for every student, MI Virtual courses remain an option for those ready to take on the challenge.

Contact Kyle Boros, Dean of Students, to explore whether this option could work for you.

Big ideas. Creative thinking. Hands-on learning. 🤖💡

Some of our Ling Elementary STEAM classes recently participated in curriculum company SAM Labs’ end-of-the-year design showcase — and brought home the “Grand Innovator” award!

Students were recognized for the creative and innovative ways they used coding and everyday classroom materials to design and build prototypes. As part of the award, SAM Labs sent Makedo Cardboard Construction kits for students to use in STEAM class, a banner (pictured), and certificates honoring standout creativity in student designs.

We’re so proud of our young innovators and the engaging learning experiences happening in our classrooms every day!

Alumni Spotlight 🎓 Anthony Hagarty, a 2021 Hemlock graduate, was involved in FIRST Robotics, varsity soccer, and varsity golf. He valued Hemlock’s small-community feel paired with the wide range of opportunities available to students.

After graduation, Anthony earned his bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering from Saginaw Valley State University. He credits Hemlock with helping him build strong problem-solving skills through both academics and extracurriculars.

A standout influence during his time at Hemlock was Mr. Boros, who challenged Anthony to think beyond perceived limits and take initiative—an approach that continues to shape his mindset today.

One of his favorite memories was competing in his first FIRST Robotics Competition, where months of hard work came together and teammates became lasting friends.

Today, Anthony serves as General Manager at Interpower Induction in Fraser, Michigan, where he leads plant operations producing induction tooling for automotive, aerospace, and medical applications—playing a role in the reliability of products people use every day.

His advice for current Huskies: Stay involved, challenge yourself academically, and don’t be afraid to put in the work—those habits will open doors sooner than you think.

Monday Memory

Flashback video. There was a junk yard on Pine Street. Today, that same space helps tell the Hemlock story.

What was once a place filled with scrap, rust, and things people were done with has become part of a campus built around opportunity, innovation, and student success.

https://www.facebook.com/reel/491328151552991

That did not happen by accident. It happened because people believed Hemlock could be more. It happened because a community leaned in, voted yes, supported kids, trusted the process, and kept pulling the sled.

Now, where others once saw a junk yard, we see students building robots, solving problems, creating, learning, and preparing for what comes next.

A pretty incredible reminder of what vision, grit, and a whole lot of teamwork can do.

Innovate. Collaborate. Educate. Small Town. Big Opportunities.

Sometimes things just fit perfectly together… like two peas in a pod. 🌱

10th grader Josie Wolgast hand-built this ceramic planter in Art 1, and with her summer job at a greenhouse, she knew exactly what belonged inside it. Her handmade creation turned out to be the perfect home for these little succulents. 🪴

Creativity blooming both in and out of the classroom.

Please join us in congratulating Stacey Langworthy on her new role as MTSS Interventionist supporting literacy, intervention, and instructional collaboration across Hemlock Public School District.

Stacey has been part of the Huskie Pack for more than 20 years, serving students both in the middle school and at K.C. Ling Elementary. Many of you know her as a thoughtful educator, a strong teammate, and someone who cares deeply about kids.

As we continue growing our MTSS work across the district, Stacey’s experience in literacy, intervention, collaboration, and student support makes her a great fit for this role. We’re excited to have her helping lead this work alongside our staff and students.

Congratulations, Stacey. We’re excited for what’s ahead.

Transformation takes vision—but also trust. We are so thankful for a community that believes in our students, supports our growth, and walks alongside us through change.

We are stewarding not just buildings and budgets, but a legacy for future Huskies. And we are excited for what comes next.

Real leadership is not having all the answers.
Real leadership is having the humility to listen.

To students.
To staff.
To parents.
To our community.

At Hemlock, every conversation matters because every voice matters.
Those voices helped shape our district vision for the future.

Take a look at Hemlock 2026 and Beyond

We lean in.
We listen.
We learn.
And we lead with purpose.

Forward together. Always.

Support doesn’t take the summer off, and neither do we.

Through our partnership with Gaggle ReachOut, our students have access to a 24/7 crisis line where they can call or text anytime, day or night. Whether they’re feeling overwhelmed, unsure where to turn, or simply need someone to listen, help is always within reach.

☎️ Find out more here: hemlockps.com/article/1490121

As a whole child school, we are committed to caring for the physical, academic, mental, and emotional well-being of every Huskie - meeting students where they are, whenever they need it most.

As we head into the summer months, when feelings of loneliness or isolation can increase, we encourage families to keep this resource close. Sometimes, one conversation can make all the difference.
