Attention all GDRSD Families, Staff, Students, and Community Members,

Mark your calendars and JOIN a COMMUNITY DIALOGUE! 

October 22nd from 6-7:30 pm at Groton Dunstable Regional High School

You’re invited to join us for a GDRSD Community Dialogue, focused on shaping the future of our schools. Join the discussion and contribute your thoughts to a shared strategic vision.  Table groups will be sharing ideas on how our core values, mission, and vision for GDRSD graduates can be implemented in our schools.  Groups will also share ideas and priorities focused on academic achievement through authentic learning experiences, student wellness, and fostering a sense of belonging for students, families, and staff. Your voice matters—come help us build a shared vision for the future of our district!

GDEF

Are you looking for a unique way to recognize the hard work and impact a Teacher, Administrator, or Other Staff/Community Member have had on your child?
GDEF Teaching Stars are the perfect gift! They are a great way to say "Thank You" while helping to enrich the schools in the form of a donation to GDEF.

Do you have an amazing team working with your child this year, and can’t decide which one to give a Teaching Star to?
Give them a Team Star Award! GDEF is now offering Team Star Awards, where you can make one donation recognizing up to four recipients. Each member will receive their own certificate.

This could include any combination of Teachers, Room Assistants, Guidance Counselors, Special Education Team, etc. You pick!
