School Behavior

Good behavior and classroom discipline are imperative if learning is to take place.  The purpose of Groton Dunstable High School's Policies and Standards for Behavior is to ensure a safe and orderly environment for everyone.  These rules are in effect for all GDRHS students, regardless of their age, while at school and at all school sponsored events. 

Students, parents and teachers should be aware that the following charts are included in the handbook as a quick-reference for general disciplinary actions.   It is not designed to be all-inclusive or reflect extenuating circumstances.
