Friday/Monday schedule information
Dear Parents and Guardians,
I just wanted to make sure that all parties were aware of expectations and bussing for the last two days of school. Although students may get dismissed without penalty after they complete their exams, Friday is scheduled as a full day of school. Busses will run at normal times.
Monday is scheduled as a release day. On Monday all high school students who have work to be made up, have detentions that have not been served or have scheduled attendance appeals are expected to be in school. Any student who has completed all of their work and has taken all exams are not required to be present. Bussing will be provided as usual so that any student required to attend will have transportation.
Sincerely,
Mike Woodlock

GD Ultimate Frisbee
GD Ultimate Team Impresses at State High School Tournament
Congratulations to the Groton-Dunstable Ultimate Frisbee Team for its strong showing at last weekend's Massachusetts High School Division III Ultimate Team Championships in Northampton, Mass. GD's mixed team finished ninth out of the 21 teams competing in the tournament, compiling a 3-1 record, including winning it's last three matches in a row.
GD's performance in this year's tournament was particularly impressive given that only six of the 20 team members had competed in Ultimate before this season. The team was led by Captains Jennifer Kenney ('17), Patrick O'Reilly ('18) and Zach Miller ('18). Special thanks to coaches Richard Dorff and Bart Yeager for volunteering their time to guide the team this year.

Graduation will continue as planned tomorrow evening at 6pm. Should the forecast change dramatically before tomorrow evening we will move the ceremony indoors.
