Dighton-Rehoboth Regional School District

What Dighton-Rehoboth Regional School District does

Dighton-Rehoboth Regional School District is a public K-12 school district operated by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, serving the towns of Dighton and Rehoboth in Bristol County. The district operates five core schools (Beckwith Middle School, Dighton Middle School, Dighton-Rehoboth Regional High School, Dighton Elementary School, and Palmer River Elementary School) under a unified district banner, with the central office co-located with the high school at 2700 Regional Road, North Dighton. It is led by Superintendent Bill Runey and governed by an elected school committee.

The district delivers the full standard K-12 public education curriculum, augmented by a growing portfolio of career and technical education (CTE) programs — including EV/Hybrid Automotive Training (funded by a $650,000 Massachusetts Clean Energy Grant in November 2025) and a new Medical Assisting Program (funded by a $15,000 STEM grant in October 2025) — alongside competitive athletics, unified sports, performing arts (nationally recognized in 2026 as one of 15 Premier Communities for Theatre Education by the Educational Theatre Association), and an inaugural eSports program launched in Spring 2026. Technology infrastructure is built on standard third-party platforms: Apptegy for district and school websites, Aspen/X2 for student information, Tyler Portico and Okta for employee self-service, Frontline for absence management, TeachPoint for evaluations, Thrillshare for parent communication, Google Workspace for email, Naviance for college and career readiness, and QGlobal for test administration.

Revenue is not market-generated; the district is funded through Massachusetts state education aid, local property taxes, and federal grants, with no tuition charged to resident students. Community-driven fundraising (Boosterthon, Fun Runs totaling over $69,000) and parent organizations (PTSA/PTO) supplement discretionary programming. The district's strategic plan, "DRiving Toward 2030," frames priorities around student success, innovation, and community engagement, and a December 2025 branding refresh — including a modernized Falcon logo and mascot "Falco the Falcon" — unifies identity across the six-school portfolio. An active Massachusetts School Building Authority (MSBA) project for Dighton Elementary anchors near-term capital investment.
