We are currently preparing for the 2023-2024 school year and if you have not done so already we request that you complete this survey form concerning transportation for your child for next year. While the choice is yours, we encourage you to consider using the busses provided by the district as this allows children to arrive to school on time and return home in a timely manner. In addition, using the bus system helps to alleviate the congestion on Route 44, keeping the roadway open to general traffic and emergency vehicles. We do need this form completed for each child you have at Beckwith, even if they will be transferring to another school in September. Please complete this survey before May 22, 2023.

Community members who would like to view the DRRHS graduation via livestream will need to create a free account on the NFHS website. Once logged in, viewers can access the livestream here.

Students entering 9th grade at D-R in the fall who plan on trying out for interscholastic sports in August must have a current physical on file with the high school nurse (one done within 13 months) in order to tryout. Without this documentation students will not be eligible to tryout. If your student is having an appointment for a physical over the summer with their primary care physician please email the physical to:

ddailey@drregional.org (D-R nurse) or kOleary@drregional.org (D-R athletic trainer).

Any questions please reach out to either Mrs. Dailey or Mr. O'Leary.

As we wind down this school year, we are already preparing for the Fall. If your child would like to try out for soccer, please complete this form no later than June 16, 2023. Tryouts will likely be September 6th and 7th until 4pm. Students will need to bring cleats, shin guards, a soccer ball and a water bottle. Pick up will be at 4 pm.

Vaccinations/state-mandated requirements needed for 7th grade students AND 6th grade students entering 7th grade in the fall: Tdap booster, 2nd Varicella (chicken pox) vaccine, Meningitis vaccine

A current physical is also required for entrance to 7th grade. As always, if your student is involved in inter-scholastic sports a physical is needed EVERY year. Physical forms and proof of immunization can be emailed to cmondor@drregional.org

3) Model healthy social media use

4) Watch for problematic social media use

5) Teach social media literacy
