Today's riddle: Is there anybody completely useless? 🤔 (Answer below!)
• Hingham High's Ventilation Is Failing, and Its Replacement Is at Least Three Years Out (southshore.news subscription) — Families connected to Hingham High should know that most of the school's ventilation equipment is at the end of its life, with full replacement not expected for at least three years despite ongoing boiler upgrades. At the same meeting, the School Committee adopted the state‑required PROTECT Act policy, updating language to match Hingham's broader non‑discrimination protections when police come to school.
• Five Minutes With Foster Elementary School Principal Heather Benner (hinghamanchor.com) — Foster Elementary's new principal, Heather Benner, shares how her longtime connection to Hingham and prior experience at Foster and Norwell's Cole School prepared her to lead the school community. She talks about her goals for students, what makes Hingham Public Schools special, and her favorite local spots, from Tosca's scallops to time on the water at the Shipyard.
• Why the Hingham Shipyard Ferry is Worth Your Time (thedetroitbureau.com) — If you commute from Hingham or nearby waterfront neighborhoods, the Hingham Shipyard Ferry can turn a stressful highway slog into a predictable 30‑minute ride straight to downtown Boston. This guide walks you through schedules, passes, backup plans, and why many locals find the ferry's comfort, productivity perks, and environmental benefits worth the cost.
