Three students attained a Perfect score in either ELA or Math during the Spring 2023 3rd Grade MCAS. They were rewarded with certificates and Target gift cards as a gesture of recognition for their hard work and dedication.

Every Friday we will be sharing a healthy recipe with nutritional facts that students can make at home. We will also be sharing a fitness challenge for students to try over the weekend.

Guess what it is?!?!?! It is time for Booster! The Dighton PTO holds a Fun Run (DES) and a Color Run (DMS) each year as our BIG fundraiser! We are kicking off our 7th year! This year, Booster has partnered with Dude Perfect! The kids will be so excited! This fundraiser helps fund a huge chunk of our budget for things like field trips, agendas for DMS, 4th grade yearbook, teacher requests, playground updates....We could go on and on! This year we need your help to raise as much as possible to continue to do what we do! We cannot do this without you!

Kick off will be on Friday, May 24, 2024. Keep an eye out in the next couple of weeks for some really cool stuff!
