This Friday, September 18, let’s fill our schools with Green & Gold and celebrate what unites us: one district, one community, one Falcon family.
Together, #WeAreAllFalcons and #WeAreDR!

Mrs. Fernandes does just that! When her students are absolutely rocking their learning, they get to take a “rock break,” so to speak. 🎸🎶
Mrs. Lima even joined in on the fun and put in a song request!
We love seeing our Falcons working hard, having fun, and finding joyful ways to celebrate learning at DES! 🦅💚💛

The school year kicked off with amazing energy, excitement, and plenty of smiles! Students were warmly welcomed by our DES staff, Superintendent Runey, IT Director Lauren Harwood, Special Education Director Dr. DiGioia, members of the Dighton Fire and Police Departments, and, of course, Oakie!
The beautiful weather made the day even better. From fun at recess, to singing in music class, to making worry stones in Mrs. Carter’s class, it was a fun-filled day all around. Students also enjoyed reconnecting with friends, meeting new classmates, and settling into classroom routines and expectations.
The energy throughout the building was contagious, and we could not have asked for a better start to the school year! 💚💛
Our newest Falcons had the chance to visit their classrooms, meet their teachers, and get to know some of the new friends who will be in their class this year.
A special thank you to the Dighton PTO for providing each student with a book and a delicious Kona Ice treat, and to Jenn from Bloom Bus for helping our students learn and practice important bus safety routines.
It was a wonderful morning filled with smiles, excitement, and lots of happy little Falcons. We cannot wait to officially welcome our Kindergarten students tomorrow! 🦅💚💛

It was wonderful to see so many smiling faces back at DES. We cannot wait to welcome our students tomorrow and officially kick off another amazing school year!
A special thank you to the Dighton Pack 45, Dighton PTO, DR SEPAC, Cozy Corner staff, Champions staff, and our DES Specialists for setting up tables and sharing helpful information and resources with our families.
And, of course, a huge thank you to Mrs. Cox for helping create all of the amazing backdrops and photo opportunities throughout the school! 📸💚💛
We are so grateful for everyone who helped make tonight such a special way to start the year.
Here’s to an incredible school year ahead!

ONE DR district. ONE Falcon family. ONE incredible year ahead!
Today, we came together for our 2026 Districtwide Convocation, and the energy was high!
- The Marching Band and Color Guard students kicked us off in true Falcon fashion.
- We celebrated the strength of our unified, PreK–12+ community.
- Superintendent Bill Runey challenged us to embrace what makes us strong, rethink what may need to shift, and continue to ignite, empower, and shape a district where everyone belongs.
We’re energized, we’re united, and we’re ready to get to work. Let’s make it a great year!
