Dear Tiverton Parents and Guardians,
We have an exciting construction project beginning at Tiverton High School. One that we believe will positively impact the educational experience of every child who comes to school there. Read more here: Fitness Center
Following the proposed State calendar the Tiverton Public Schools will be closed on Monday for Veterans Day.
At the School Committee Meeting on Tuesday, November 14, 2023 we will be reviewing our RICAS scores from last spring's test administration. We are pleased to announce multiple areas of growth across the schools and grade levels.
There is no school on Wednesday, November 22, 2023 to celebrate the Thanksgiving recess.
COVID is still around and we are seeing positive cases come into school. To be sure your child is not positive you can obtain free COVID Test kits at:

Reminder to parents that students in grades 6-12 have access to a tutoring program called Paper 27/7. Don’t struggle with homework, use a qualified tutor. You can find more information about Paper here: Paper Family
Please read the attached letter regarding distance learning on days when school is canceled.
The key feature of our distance learning is having our students use Google Classroom to receive information and turn in assignments. Our students are taught to use Google classroom in school. To assist our parent community to understand the nuance of Google Classroom please watch this video.
