Dear Students, Staff, and Families:
I am delighted to extend a warm welcome to everyone in our district as we embark on another academic year. Whether you are returning to our community or joining us for the first time, I am excited to have you with us. Our district is committed to fostering a supportive and enriching environment where every student and staff member can thrive, and I am proud to be a part of this vibrant community.
Construction Update
After the busiest summer to date, I would like to recap all the work that has been done throughout the district. Megan and Annmarie, our project managers from Colliers, have put together this presentation.
District Health & Wellness Committee
The District Health & Wellness Committee is currently seeking two parents to fill vacant seats.
More details about the Committee’s work and responsibilities will be shared soon. In the meantime, you can reach out directly to Heather Chea, Chair of the Committee, with any questions. For background information, you may also review Rhode Island General Law § 16-21-28 – Health and Wellness Subcommittee.

Bus Zone Tracker
Durham is working hard to get bus routes loaded into the tracker app, but this may not be ready for school opening. Please check back periodically for updates. Please be aware that some bus routes have been updated and should be checked before Tuesday.
Sincerely,
Philip D. Thornton, Ed.D.
Superintendent of Schools
