GROTON — The Groton-Dunstable Regional School Committee approved a $1,938,759.09 warrant and adopted a new Parent Advisory Council policy at its April 29 meeting. Assistant Superintendent Dr. Dyer led a presentation from MTSS coordinators Abby and Jess showing students needing explicit social-emotional instruction fell from 16 percent to 11 percent districtwide and gains in Swallow Union's "strength" category from 11 percent to 29 percent.
The committee unanimously reappointed Superintendent Dr. Bruno to the Valley Collaborative Board of Directors for a one-year term. Members heard the state House passed its budget with a $170 per-pupil increase, now headed to the Senate.
Students Gayatri and Abigail read letters from classmates who attended the NEASC Connections Conference, including one describing "trespasser syndrome" as a barrier to belonging. The roll-call vote on warrants passed 5-0.
