In memory of those who gave their lives for our freedom.
DRRHS student, Matthew DeCristofaro, recently received a Student Achievement Award from the Massachusetts Technical Educators Organization (MassCTE). Matthew was chosen for his hard work, professionalism and contributions to our school community. He was an integral part in the operations of the school store (pricing, inventory and accounting) and our pop-up vending at home football games. Matthew was hired as an accounting Co-Op student this year and has been asked to return with Berger, Katz Weishaus and Lenza, P.C. Matthew will be attending Bentley University this fall.

Attention DR Alumni & Community Members,
If you recall, the Dighton-Rehoboth District started the Strategic Planning process last year by developing the Portrait of a Graduate (POG). I am very pleased to share that the next phase of our Strategic Planning initiative is on schedule for a proposal to be made to School Committee in late May/early June. Both our Strategic Planning Committee and our DLT have christened this process “DRiving Toward 2030.”
I want to salute all who have been collaborative in this process since the Portrait of a Graduate kicked off in the fall of 2022. Now, I am asking everyone else to consider participating. We are adding a few more subcommittee members who are alumni or live in our two towns.
We are now at the stage of assembling subcommittees to build out the five foundational elements of the “DRiving Toward 2030” plan.
Participating is optional; and in my opinion, it’s not a heavy lift. We are probably looking at a maximum of three evening meetings over a 4-month period.
If you are willing to serve on a subcommittee, please take 2-3 minutes prior to January 9 at Noon to complete this Google Form. We will be creating subcommittees for each of the 5 focus areas (see below) and would like to know your top 3 subcommittee preferences.
Please be sure to mark your calendar for Wednesday, January 24 at 6pm for our next in-person DRiving Toward 2030 meeting.
DRiving Toward 2030 Subcommittees
- Funding and Facilities (Resources) - Sustainable fiscal health, facilities, and resources
- Safe & Healthy Learning Environment - Cultures that welcome learning and school environments where each scholar thrives
- Curriculum, Instruction, & Learning Outcomes - High-quality curriculum and instruction that results in future-ready learning outcomes
- Community Engagement - Enhanced school and community connections and family engagement
- Expanded Learning Opportunities - Learning opportunities both in school and community
Thank you!
Together, we are DR!
Bill Runey
Superintendent
