The Hingham Integrated Preschool is a district wide program. We have preschoolers attend from all areas in Hingham. The preschool follows the regular school calendar with the same vacations. It should be noted that the preschool starts the week after Labor Day and it also ends about 1 week prior to the rest of the school district.

Have you checked out our district-wide Occupational Therapy website yet? So many fabulous ideas for gift giving! Game suggestions are set up by skill development: fine motor, visual motor, visual spatial, writing, and sensory and gross motor. Big thanks to Marian Francis, our Occupational Therapist in grades Preschool to 5th, here at East Elementary!
