Today, we honor our courageous and selfless veterans for their bravery and sacrifices they have made in service to our country. 🇺🇸♥️ On Friday, South Elementary 5th graders led a memorable Veteran’s Day celebration. The event began with a procession of veterans, proudly led by the Hingham Militia group, followed by an all-school assembly where students and staff gathered to express their gratitude. We are deeply thankful for all veterans - those who have served, those who currently serve, and those who are no longer with us. Thank you for your dedication and service.
