Registration for the After School Strings Fall Session begins on June 17th, 2023, at 9:00 am and will be open until July 1st. This program is offered to all Hingham Public Schools students who will be in grades 3 or 4 in the fall. After School Strings is operated by Kids in Action (KIA).
After School Strings is designed as an introductory class for grades 3 and 4 students to expose them to instrumental enrichment and technique before the formal start of the instrumental program in grade 5. No prior experience with string instruments is required.
After School Strings will operate out of all four HPS elementary schools directly after school. The classes will run for 15 weeks, one class per week, and will finish with a class concert.
You may register your student for ONE of the sessions found below. The school your student attends will be the location for their strings classes.
