Writing with Mr. HawblitzHello, my name is Lance Hawblitz and this is my fourth year teaching 4th and 5th grade. I have a degree in both Elementary Education and Physical Education from Western Michigan University. When I'm not in the classroom I'm spending time with my family and coaching varsity girls basketball for Marshall Public Schools.
