April 1 - May 31

HEF is excited to bring back Hingham Hi5s from April 1 through May 31 creating an easy and impactful way to thank our incredible HPS faculty and staff. Honor an HPS faculty, staff or administrator today by submitting a Hi5 nomination and $20 donation. HEF board members will personally deliver a Hi5 treat with a note of gratitude to the honoree. There is no limit on the number of Hi5s you can give!

Thank you!

The Hingham Education Foundation is thrilled to announce that we have awarded $100,000 to fund 21 grants that will positively impact students across our 6 schools.

This year, HEF raised funds through the beloved elementary school Spelling Bee, Fall and Spring events, annual campaign and the feel good Hi5 initiative.
