Parents and students--a look ahead--we are planning on a return of Chromebooks, textbooks, library books, etc. for next week. Probably Thursday evening and Friday mid-day, both for a span of time. If neither of those options work for you, we can schedule a visit at a different time. Contact Mr. Keyser at keyser@hemlockps.com if necessary. You would not need to leave your vehicle--following all social distancing guidelines, just drive up to the designated place at the building and a staff member would take your items from you. More specific information to follow shortly! Those who would need to keep their Chromebooks to complete summer school classes will have a different collection time.
Memorial Day--a time to honor heroes.
Congratulations to Rylee Sullivan! She has read 5 million words so far this year. That is a new school year record!

HMS ThrowBack Thursday looks back to 2005--Part 1
#scienceinaction Wyatt and Lauren made a sweet little nest for a robin’s egg that they found. They weaved grass, shrubs, dandelions and used mud to hold it all together. Complete with the fuzz from the dandelion all around the egg to keep it warm so it will hatch 😉 I think they did a better job than the robins do 🤣

HMS ThrowBack Thursday looks back to 2005--Part deux
As the class of 2020 departs Hemlock High School in this non-tradition way, the staff wants you to always remember that “We’ll Be There For You”.
Oops! Sorry I missed Monday Morning "Meeting". I've been doing some reading. Here's what I found that makes good sense when it comes to handling the everyday stresses that go along with our stay-at-home order:
There are steps anyone can take when feeling anxiety and stress levels rising:
Motion. We’ve got to get up every 60-90 minutes and move around. Shoot some basketball. Take walks. Run. Play tennis. We need endorphins to flow.
Margin. We must make sure our stress isn’t due to an overcrowded schedule. Be realistic about what can get done each day. Reduce noise or clutter if possible.
Mindfulness. Instead of thinking about everything at once, try focusing your mind and breathing. Mono-task, don’t multitask. Pick one thing to get done and then move on to the next thing.
Management. Part of handling stress issues is learning to manage stress: limit time on social media; get enough sleep; eat well; practice self-talk.
Monday Morning notes--on Tuesday--sorry for the delay :( Happy birthday this week to:
