Congratulations to our Young Citizenship Award recipients for the month of April! In partnership with the Hastings Kiwanis Club, we honor students in each building for their top-notch character and service to their school. This new group of award recipients was very worthy of that honor. Great work!

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!

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)!
