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

- Our staff includes
o 14 dedicated teachers
