As a reminder, unless it is an emergency, all dismissal changes should be communicated to the office in a timely manner. Additionally, unless it is an emergency, if you are planning to dismiss your child early, please do so prior to 2:10. Anything after that conflicts with the buses arriving and dismissal.

Dear Ditson Families,

Save the date! The Ditson School Association is excited to invite all families to our Math Games Night on Thursday, January 22, 2026, from 6:00–7:30 PM in the school cafeteria. This fun, family-friendly evening will feature math games, rewards, and giveaways for everyone to enjoy, and is sponsored by Mathnasium of Billerica.

We hope you’ll join us to play, learn, and laugh together as we show our students that math can be fun!
