Students from Dorchester are bussed 8 miles south on Highway 13 and attend school in the Colby School District.   The district is comprised of an elementary school, which serves students in kindergarten through 4th grade, a middle school which houses 5th-8th grades, and a high school for our 9th-12th graders.

In addition to strong academics, extra-curricular activities are abundant in our school district.   Kids can start playing football in CUDA (Colby, Unity, Dorchester, Abbotsford) in the 3rd grade and play until they graduate from high school.   They can also choose to play basketball, baseball, softball, volleyball, or participate in competitive swimming, track or cross country.   Our high school also boasts a nationally-recognized Show Choir, the Colby Coalition, which travels to competitions all over the country.
