Spring is finally here and our amazing events this week were in full bloom!

Grade 1 and 2 participated in Get Smart About Art presentations with many parent volunteers and Grade 2 had a Mad Science Show, both funded by our generous PTO. On Wednesday, Grades K-5 were fully engaged while listening to the great folktales and memoirs told by internationally acclaimed storyteller, Len Cabral which was funded by a METCO grant.

HUGE compliment to all students for their behavior during the presentations and particularly during All School Meeting on Thursday. They lived up to the expectation of a PRS student and showed our visitors what it means to be Polite, Responsible and Safe!

LOOKING FOR AFTERSCHOOL CARE?

Kids in Action (KIA) Before and After-School Programs are for Hingham students in grades K-5. Our curriculum focuses on social and emotional development with support in academic skills through play and guidance.https://hinghamschools.org/academic-programs/kids-in-action9/

FREE LUNCH FOR ALL - This year, due to Federal Assistance, lunch will be served free of charge. This year, there will also be a breakfast program ( also peanut/tree nut free) for students who wish to partake in that. There will be one “grab and go breakfast” offering daily.

VOLUNTEERS - We are happy to have parent volunteers in our school again! As we enter a new school year, all volunteers in the schools (classroom volunteers, field trip chaperones, etc.) will require a new CORI check. Forms can be found in the main office or here
