Hemlock Public School District is excited to announce its partnership with MagicSchool AI, the world’s most used and loved AI platform for schools. This collaboration reflects the district’s ongoing commitment to supporting educators with innovative tools while preparing students for a future shaped by technology.

MagicSchool AI, an award-winning platform created by educators for educators, is designed to streamline the time-intensive tasks that teachers face daily. From lesson planning and differentiation to writing assessments, IEPs, and family communications, MagicSchool AI helps teachers save up to 10 hours a week—time that can now be spent focusing on building meaningful connections with students and families.

“We are thrilled to launch MagicSchool AI, empowering our teachers with next-level tools to enhance their instruction and elevate student learning,” said Superintendent Dr. Don Killingbeck. “This initiative represents our commitment to innovation and providing our educators with cutting-edge resources to meet the needs of today’s classrooms. By integrating technology thoughtfully, we’re equipping our teachers to inspire and prepare the next generation like never before.”

At a time when over 44% of K-12 teachers report feeling burnt out, MagicSchool AI offers a much-needed solution to lighten the load. Its tools simplify repetitive behind-the-scenes tasks, such as adapting lessons to fit students’ needs and generating classroom content. Designed to be intuitive and customizable, the platform allows educators to make the most of their unique expertise and classroom knowledge.

Lindsay Davis, a 4th-grade teacher at K.C. Ling Elementary, shared her excitement about the new partnership: “MagicSchool AI is a game changer. It’s going to save us so much time on tasks that take hours, giving us more opportunities to focus on teaching and connecting with our students. I can’t wait to start using it in my classroom.”

This partnership also brings MagicSchool for Students to Hemlock classrooms, introducing responsible AI experiences that build AI literacy and critical skills for the future. Together, these tools ensure that both educators and students are equipped to thrive in an increasingly dynamic and technology-driven world.

Hemlock Public School District is proud to lead the way in leveraging technology to support the human aspects of teaching and learning. This partnership represents a step forward in fulfilling the district’s mission to innovate, collaborate, and educate in ways that prepare students to be life-ready.
