Established in 1987, the Hancock
Public Schools Foundation receives and distributes funds
for charitable and educational activities that assist in
the development, implementation or maintenance of
programs that significantly contribute to the education
of Hancock Public Schools students. The Foundation is a
registered IRS 501 (c )(3) organization. All
contributions are tax-deductible to the full extent of
the law.
Focus on Funding
The Hancock Public Schools Foundation was recently
featured on the WLUC-TV6 segment, The UPSide. The series
focuses on people, businesses and organizations that
make a positive difference in UP communities. It was
very rewarding to have our work recognized. Click here

Industrial Arts & Technology
Almost
a year ago the HPSF approved a grant request to replace
decades-old engine lathes in the Industrial Education
Department. They arrived this fall and are providing
valuable experience for students.
Industrial Education teacher Gary Mishica says, "These
replacement machines will greatly assist us in our
"hands-on learning" and permit us to again teach a unit
on lathe turning with emphases on metal precision and
accuracy."
Thanks to all of you who support the Foundation and our
Hancock Public Schools!
