Hingham Nursery School Exterior

 

 

We are a school with a long and rich history.

  • We began in 1966 as St. John’s Community Nursery School, a non-profit/non-sectarian preschool
  • In 2004, we changed our name to Hingham Nursery School
  • Also in 2004, Parents, former parents and the greater community banded together to raise money and search for a new location so the school could be saved for future students
  • In 2006, we opened the doors to our new building at 1101 Main Street which was made possible by dedicated parents and a supportive community
  • In 2007 we began our Full-Day Kindergarten program
  • To date, 1760 students have spent their preschool years with us
  • We are proud to have students today whose parents were also students

We are the largest preschool in Hingham

  • We are open 5 days/week with nine separate preschool and kindergarten programs
  • Our staff includes

    o   14 dedicated teachers
    o   A director, an administrative assistant, and a financial administrator
    o   A nursery school music specialist
    o   Kindergarten specialists in Spanish, gym, music and art
  • Our commitment to ongoing training keeps our teachers’ skills and knowledge up-to-date
  • A dedicated 14-member board of directors governs the school.  We have operated with a balanced budget since our inception.
