Dighton-Rehoboth

The SouthCoast will see 90 percent totality for the April 8 solar eclipse, right at the time students are wrapping up their day. How will schools handle it?

A Dighton-Rehoboth educator has been awarded $25,000 in a surprise ceremony to celebrate her contributions to increasing literacy among the district's students.

Most Massachusetts teachers are paid well above the national average, but there are several SouthCoast towns that are doing even better than that.
