You've Got a Friend in Me Camp
2026-05-28 10:30 - 16:00
With Toy Story 5 landing in June, we’re bringing the magic to life, DSU style. In a world where Woody, Buzz, and the crew are getting replaced by screens… we’re flipping the script. At DSU, we skip the lily pads (iPads) and head straight for the Launchpad with real friendships, real laughs, real connection.
You can expect a Pizza Planet pizza party, Toy Story trivia, team challenges, swimming + eyeball-to-eyeball fun. This isn’t just a camp, it’s a throwback to everything that made being a kid awesome. Come for the fun. Stay for the friendships. Leave with your own crew.
Spots are limited so don’t get left in the toy box.

CEO Info Night: Help Your 5th Grader Step Into Middle School With Confidence
2026-06-09 17:30 - 19:00
Don’t Just Do Middle School. Run It Like a CEO.
Middle school brings more classes, more expectations, more decisions, and a whole lot more responsibility. DSU’s CEO Program — Chief Everything Officer — helps students get ready for it all with practical skills they can use every day.
Designed for rising 6th graders, the CEO Program gives students the tools to become more independent, organized, confident, and prepared as they make the move to middle school. Because let’s be honest: the backpack does not organize itself.
At CEO Info Night, 5th grade families will hear directly from independent and successful students who have experienced the program and can share what it’s really like. No lectures. No pressure. Just real talk about the skills that help students step up, stand out, and take ownership of their middle school experience.
Families will learn how the CEO Program supports students with:

Organization and time management
Confidence and self-advocacy
Decision-making and responsibility
School-life balance
Building independence before middle school begins

Guiding Good Choices: The Conversations Before the Choices
2026-08-12 - 2026-08-20
5th grade and Middle School Parents… This is your Wake-Up Call!
Most parents think they have more time. The average age children first encounter vaping, alcohol, peer pressure, or risky online behavior is younger than most families expect.
The good news? Research shows one of the strongest protective factors isn’t punishment.
It’s having a trusted adult who knows how to start the conversation.
Join us for Guiding Good Choices, a nationally recognized 4-session workshop designed for parents of children ages 9–14.

Build stronger communication
Learn how to set boundaries that work
Help your child confidently say “no”
Strengthen your family before the challenges begin

Four sessions now can change hundreds of conversations later.

Dates: This program is offered on August 12th, 13th, 19th and 20th.
Location: The Duxbury Student Union
Morning or Afternoon Sessions Offered: Select the session that is convenient for your family. Choose from the Morning Session 9:15-11:15 or Afternoon Session 4:15-6:15.

Please sign up via the Google Form and select either a morning or afternoon session for each day.

About the Instructor: Guiding Good Choices Instructor, Duxbury Therapist and Scituate Middle School Guidance Counselor, Amy Mahoney talks about all the risky decisions teens are likely to contemplate and how family values can be the greatest risk protector for kids.
Do I have to attend all four sessions? It’s okay to miss a session for family commitments during the summer.
