We hope everyone's spring semester is off to a great start. Today was the last day to request a change in electives, so please be aware that the window for schedule changes is now closed. Report cards will be available on Aspen on Monday, February 6th. Parents and guardians, if you have not yet accessed your Aspen Parent Portal, please find the directions below. It's extremely important to have an account, as this is where you will find your child's academic, attendance, and conduct information. Another important update is scheduled for Monday: Aspen will be communicating attendance information through Apptegy, which means parents and guardians will receive calls, texts, and emails to alert them of their child's tardiness or absence. Again, this is another reason to ensure that you have up-to-date and accurate contact information in Aspen.

This afternoon, the DESE published district and school report cards on their website. Please find the letter regarding the 2022 report card here and a link to the full site below. If you have questions regarding the report card, please email me. As always, if there's anything our team can do to improve the students' experience at DR, we want to hear from you.

Sincerely,

Gail DeCecco, Principal

Donald Izzo, Assistant Principal for Grades 10 & 12

Ai-Ling Chang, Assistant Principal for Grades 9 & 11

John Herald, CTE Director

Doug Kelley, Dean of Activities and Athletics

This is a reminder the Dighton Rehoboth schools will use the Apptegy alerts system for weather-related messages. It is not our plan to use local media outlets. All messages will be sent through Apptegy via text, RoboCall, and email. Apptegy uses the contact information in Aspen. To modify your contact information, please contact the Main Office.

Our next DRRHS School Council meeting is scheduled for Monday at 6 pm in the media center.

The Regional Special Education Parent Advisory Council (SEPAC) is a group of parents with children who have special needs that want to help other families facing similar challenges. We advise the school committees about the education and well being of their students with disabilities. Our goal is to listen and provide information and assistance in an open and friendly environment. Please see the attached flyer to learn more about the free VIRTUAL informational session scheduled for February 7th from 6-8 pm. Registration is required.
