Our 3rd Annual Ice Cream social was AWESOME!!
Thank you to all of the families how came out and to all of our staff that showed up to help. Our new 5th grade students, their grown-ups and any new student who wanted to were able to come and see friends and get a tour of our building.
We have been able to harvest so many vegetables this summer thanks to Ms. Breault and her 5th and 6th grade STEM students.
This is what I picked today.
We are having our 3rd annual Ice Cream Social for our incoming 5th grade and any new students who wish to attend. This event will take place this coming Wednesday 8/23 at 2:30 in the South Cafe.
Nearly 40 Chromebook carts are being updated, cleaned, and new identifying stickers are added to all Chromebooks. This is a huge undertaking, and thanks to the GDRSD Technology & Digital Learning Team for their efforts in having every student and staff member begin the year with a great experience with technology! It will be important to keep this equipment in great shape this year!
How many tech team members does it take to change a wireless access point? Our tech team watches as Gary Babin replaces one of the 145 wireless access points across several Groton-Dunstable school buildings.
GDRSD Network Administrator Gary Babin is excited to deploy our new Extreme Wireless access points in the South and Noth buildings.
The Department of Technology & Digital Learning is working hard to prepare student carts and Chromebooks for the new year!
Today's state track meet has been canceled. It has been rescheduled to Sunday, June 11, at 3 p.m.
Full School Bingo!
Day of Difference in grade 6 and at Florence Roche.
Our Day of Difference was students from our World of Difference program going to classrooms in the 5th and 6th grade to facilitate lessons about inclusivity, bias, and being an ally. Students from the high school World of Difference program joined some of our 7th and 8th grade classes to talk about the importance of understanding, valuing, and appreciating all members of our community. Students got to connect and learn with each other.
