Congratulations to Claire Murphy, a 6th grader at Hemlock Middle School and our Student of the Month. 🌟 Claire is a wonderful example of what it means to be a Huskie. She consistently makes positive choices, works hard to achieve strong academic success, and is known as a kind and loyal friend who stands up for what she believes in—even when it’s difficult. Her integrity, responsibility, and positive attitude make her a role model for her peers.
We’re proud to recognize Claire and the leadership she shows each day.
#ThrowbackThursday to our 2002 co-op crew ✨ From vet clinics and McDonald’s to day care centers and service roles, these Huskies were already stepping into real-world experience long before graduation. The pages of the yearbook remind us that learning doesn’t just happen in classrooms—these students were getting life-ready for the world ahead.
Small town roots. Big opportunities then… and now.
Mrs. Gross’s pre-algebra students spent the day exploring new possibilities inside the Lockwood STEM Center. From hands-on challenges to real-world problem-solving, they had the chance to see math come alive in a whole new way—right here on our own campus.
Innovation, curiosity, and opportunity… all under one roof.
Caffeinating our Huskie Pack—one cup at a time—is Rudy Steinert, New Vehicle Sales Consultant at Garber Chevrolet Saginaw. As we #PullTheSled into holiday break at the end of this week, we’re grateful for the boost and the continued support of our staff and students. Thank you, Rudy, and thank you to Garber Chevrolet for showing up for our school community.

After the meeting, HBA members joined students and staff to wrap Christmas gifts for local families—a simple, meaningful way to love our community together.

We are so grateful for St. John XXIII Parish in Hemlock. This Christmas season, their congregation stepped up in a big way—adopting children and families in need of gifts and helping make the holidays feel hopeful, warm, and special. Thank you for letting your light shine so bright in our community. Your kindness is a reminder of what Hemlock is all about: taking care of each other when it matters most. Way to #PullTheSled

🌟 Gracie Brabaw, a first grader in Mrs. Olinger’s class at K.C. Ling Elementary, is our next Student of the Month.
“Gracie always tries her best in class", Mrs. Olinger shared. "She is kind, helpful, and caring to all of her classmates. She’s a shining star full of love and energy! Great work, Gracie.”
When do we start planning the 55th Annual Senior Citizen Thanksgiving Dinner? The day after the 54th. That’s how special this tradition is to us.
A huge thank you to our sponsors, including Wolgast Corporation, for providing all the turkeys, and to all our prize donors who help make the day so much fun. Thank you to our incredible students who serve food, run “prize patrol,” and share their talents through music and entertainment. And thank you to our Hemlock Middle School team—custodians, Dean of Students, principal, and food service staff—who work behind the scenes to make the magic happen.
We’re already leaning in to make the 55th Annual Thanksgiving Dinner (November 2026) the best one yet. If you’d like to be part of this special event—whether you’re a local senior citizen who wants to attend, or a business/organization who’d like to partner with us—give us a call at 989.642.5282.
48 weeks and counting… Come help us make year 55 unforgettable.

It’s #ThrowbackThursday, and today we’re cracking open the 2001 yearbook — a year of school spirit, fresh styles, and halls filled with Huskie pride. Here’s a little glimpse back at some of the moments that made those days memorable.
📌 Recognize someone? Tag them and share a favorite memory.
Did you know we have a Teacher Cadet Program at Hemlock High School? 🍎📚Our cadets step right into our elementary classrooms, gaining hands-on experience as they assist with lessons, support young learners, and explore whether a future in education might be the right path for them.
Teachers are loving it, students are loving it, and our cadets are gaining skills that will serve them well in college and beyond.
Small town, big opportunities—right here in Hemlock.
