Today is National Administrative Professionals’ Day, and we’re pausing to say a heartfelt thank you to the incredible individuals who keep our schools running smoothly—our building office professionals. These are the people who greet us with a smile (even before the coffee kicks in), answer every call, calm the chaos, and somehow manage to keep it all organized behind the scenes. They are the first voice our families hear and the first face our students see—and they do it all with heart, grace, and unmatched dedication. Personally, as our school superintendent, I want to express my deep appreciation for Lela Gronski, my executive assistant. Her support, attention to detail, and commitment make everything I do better—and I’m beyond grateful. To each and every one of our administrative professionals across Hemlock Public School District—thank you. You are truly the glue that holds us together. #HemlockStrong #AdministrativeProfessionalsDay #PullTheSled #ThankYou

🌧️ April Showers, May Flowers... and a New Date for Earth Day 🌼 They say April showers bring May flowers,
But sometimes they also bring canceled hours—
Of rakes and gloves and boots in the dirt,
To show this earth just how much it's worth. We had hoped to press the reboot button on our beloved Bill Agresta Cross Country Course this Tuesday, April 22nd, in honor of Earth Day. But the weather had other plans. 🌧️ So we’re shifting our celebration—and our clean-up—to a later, sunnier day.
 📅 New Date: Wednesday, May 21, 2025 Same passion. Same purpose. Just a bit more sunshine. ☀️
 Let’s make it count—together. #EarthDayEveryDay #HemlockStrong #PullTheSled #BillAgrestaCourse #CommunityRoots #Huskietastic

#ThrowbackThursday to 1985 📸 Here's a delightful snapshot of Principal Carmen Sparado with the Easter Bunny in front of Hemlock Elementary. Mr. Sparado began his career with Hemlock Public School District in 1963 as the band director—back when teachers started their day picking up students and ended it by driving them home. Over nearly three decades, he wore many hats: bus driver, band director, elementary and middle school principal, and several other administrative roles. He was a true Hemlock legend. #HemlockHuskies #Huskietastic #HemlockStrong #Since1863
