The Berkshire Educational Resources K12 (BERK12) consulting team needs your feedback for a study about the future of the Mohawk Trail and Hawlemont Regional School Districts. We strongly encourage families (parents, caregivers, students, grandparents, alumni, others) and community members to attend one of four upcoming Community Engagement Sessions. If interested, please register in advance to attend one of the sessions.
Are you interested in sustainability in our district, but were unable to attend the forum? Don't worry! You can find out about all the work that BERK12 is doing and ways that you can be involved by visiting the 2Districts8Towns website for more information.
Are you a registered voter? Are you unsure? With a town meeting coming in June and a presidential election coming next fall, now is the time to make sure that you registered so that your voice can be heard. To help with that, our town clerk, Anna Lavarreda, will be set up at the Student Art Show and Family Reading Night. Anna will be able to confirm whether or not you have already registered and help register you if you're not. Be sure to stop by the table that night!
Please join us for our next PTO meeting on Monday, April 22 at 3:30 p.m. in the staff room. We will be discussing plans for teacher appreciation week. We hope to see you there!
We are hosting a student art show and family reading night on Friday, May 10 from 5:00 to 7:30 p.m. This event will include read alouds from people in our Colraiin community, pizza dinner, and a free book swap to end the night.
