Are you interested in the future of our Communities? Join us for the Fiscal Year 2025 Budget Forums on Tuesday, February 27th, at 7:00 p.m. at Swallow Union Elementary School, where we will present, review, and answer questions on the proposed budgets for the Town of Groton, the Town of Dunstable, and the Groton Dunstable Regional School District.
As both towns face substantial budget deficits in FY25, we especially need your input. These forums allow residents to voice their opinions, ask questions, and gain a deeper understanding of the budgetary plans for the upcoming fiscal year. Your participation is crucial in shaping the future of our Communities.


Good afternoon,
Due to tomorrow's projected weather, Groton Dunstable Regional will be closed on February 13th. All after-school activities are also canceled.
Best regards,
Laura Chesson

Good evening,
Due to the continued forecast for significant snowfall and deteriorating road conditions, GDRSD will be opening on a two hour delay tomorrow. However, given the lack of clear projections on snow fall and duration of the storm, staff should check for a possible change to cancellation in the morning.
Again, at this time we are going with a two hour delay for Monday, January 30th, however if the snowfall totals, storm timing, and road conditions worsen this may change. Stay safe, Laura

Our Innovation teacher, Mrs. Roy, planned a fantastic icebreaker to start the new semester and build strong relationships with sixth graders. Mrs. Roy used PearDeck to spice up Innovation Lab and Chromebook expectations by diving into some great conversations! #InnovationLabMagic #ChromebookMagic 💻

The Middle School World of Difference chapter hosted all middle school classes at their Holiday Stroll. 7th and 8th grade World of Difference members researched a diverse representation of winter holidays and created displays for each. Holiday displays included information such as the history of the holiday, traditions and celebrations, and props or food connected to the holiday.







Due to continued snow 🌨️ and possibly icing, Groton Dunstable Regional School District will have a two hour delayed opening tomorrow. There will be no half day pre-school and no half-day kindergarten. Please be safe.

At GDRSD, educators start their day with a professional learning session focused on MTSS at the Performance Arts Center.


What a productive morning it has been for the Swallow Union staff and the Technology & Digital Learning team! Last night, Ockers successfully delivered and installed (12) new 75" TouchView panels as we made the transition from aging projectors. These new panels come with exciting features that we are eager to explore, such as the S-write whiteboarding software and Eshare wireless screen sharing...among many of the available features!






Our GD Crusaders played their opening game versus Greater Lowell Tech with exhilarating color commentary from Jonah Rodman ('24), play-by-play from parent Linus Brier, and camera/production from The Groton Channel's David Germain. All three will continue to bring their love and knowledge to every football game this season...from every touchdown, tackle, and thrilling moment on behalf of the GDRHS community. Make sure to check out the recording of the game here: https://reflect-thegrotonchannel.cablecast.tv/CablecastPublicSite/show/10486?site=1


A special moment at GDRMS today! Officer Wayne and two students raised our American flag for the first time this school year! 🇺🇸
