While our halls are empty of students over spring break, crews have kicked off another important bond-funded project as they work to renovate the boys and girls lorckerrooms at the high school. This will lead into a total renovation of the athletic commons over the summer!

Hastings Area Schools were represented well at the 2025 Michigan Art Education Association State Show in Adrian, which wrapped up over the weekend. Held at the Hickman Gallery on the campus of Adrian College, the show featured the top 100 works from elementary and high school students across the state. Central Elementary fifth grader Kallen and Southeastern Elementary kindergartener DJ had work displayed at the show. Kallen’s work depicted a Husky Zentangle and DJ’s piece was a penguin. Additionally, Hastings High School senior Raine created a piece titled Star Within The Tar, which made it into the top 30 in the state. Great work, everyone!

The high school’s ag science class finished off its last day before Spring Break with a chicken lab and a special visitor — Mrs. Mayack’s peacock.  Three years ago, this peacock spent his first few months living in the ag room/greenhouse and loves his students. It was great to have him back to visit and students were able to see how much he has grown.

Yesterday Southeastern Elementary student council members battled the frigid weather this morning to install some new homes for the community's winged population. These students were out on the large property near Green Street and Cook Road installing a series of bird houses. They're move-in ready!

On March 31st Star Elementary welcomed in a guest mystery reader to help cap off March Is Reading Month. It was Dr. Damico, our own superintendent. He shared a great story and peppered in some "dad jokes" (his specialty)!
