We are so incredibly proud of Alayna!

Student Spotlight - Alayna Bell

Activities & Involvement
Alayna has been actively involved in Hemlock’s Fine Arts program across multiple disciplines, bringing creativity and dedication with every opportunity.

Alayna’s six-and-a-half-year journey in theatre has been transformative, allowing her to grow and discover new dimensions of self-expression.

In addition to theatre, Alayna has explored visual arts through two years of art classes and two years in Art Club, continuing to develop and showcase her artistic talents. She also participated for one year on the Snow Carving team.

Alayna’s journey reflects the heart of our Performing Arts program -providing a space where students can grow, express themselves, and build meaningful connections.

Student Quote
"The arts have allowed me to come out of my shell and become the person I have dreamed of being since I was little. I have made so many new friends and beautiful connections with people. I have also been able to demonstrate my skills in art and show people what I can really do, especially since I still like to hide in the shadows sometimes. The arts program as a whole is an opportunity that is given to so many people like me who may not be able to express themselves well enough but want their voices to reach everyone they meet. "

We are so incredibly proud of Daisy!

Her passion for theatre spans seven years, during which she has not only performed in numerous productions but has also given back by mentoring the middle school theatre program for four years - helping the next generation discover their voices on stage.

"The arts have helped me gain the confidence that was missing from my life for so long. The people that I met there helped me find my self-worth and made me feel like I always belonged. To me, the arts program is home. I've never been more comfortable or felt safer anywhere else."
