Hemlock Public School District is now accepting nominations for their 2024 Hall of Fame class. This year’s nominations will mark the third annual class to be invited to join the Huskie Hall of Fame. Nominations can be submitted by filling out the form found here.
Hemlock’s Hall of Fame features three categories of recipients: Distinguished Alumni, Athletic Honors, and Significant Contributors. The Hall of Fame will accept applicants in all three categories but only induct one member per year and will rotate between the three categories. The inaugural member of the class of 2022 was Mr. Carl Gippert in the Special Contributors category. Mr. Gippert was honored at halftime of a varsity football game with a wonderful ceremony, and many of his former students returned to recognize this accomplishment.
The Hall of Fame recipient of 2023 was Mr. John Mulvaney, a member of the Class of 1968, who demonstrated exceptional achievements in all three categories: Athletics, Significant Contributor, and Distinguished Alumni. The ceremony took place on September 15th during halftime of the eagerly awaited varsity football game, with friends and family present to celebrate our guest of honor.
The district has a rich history of honoring individual accomplishments and contributions over the years. It is amazing to see how many alumni of the Hemlock Public School District have gone on to accomplish big things, along with those who have given of their time, energy, and efforts to make the school a better place for students.
Board President Matt Wesner said, "Recognizing the outstanding achievements of our alumni and contributors is a cornerstone of our community's spirit. Each inductee into the Huskie Hall of Fame embodies the values and legacy of Hemlock Public School District, inspiring current and future generations to strive for excellence. We are excited to continue this tradition and honor those who have made significant impacts in their fields and to our school."
