Many students are waking up this morning and wondering if they have school today.
In Pittsfield, school has been cancelled. School Superintendent William Travis said he cancelled school instead of implementing a delay because of the condition of sidewalks.
Also closed today are schools in the Central Berkshire School District, Savoy Elementary School, Clarksburg, Florida, Monroe schools and the Southern Berkshire Regional School District based in Sheffield.

Better safe than sorry, sometimes the school district doesn't realize that parents would rather see their children alive at the end of the year in order for them to go extra days, than have them killed or injured in an accident!
Good call, sometimes because a storm hasn't hit us yet we still go to school but then afterwards the roads and sidewalks are so bad that they should of cancelled school in the morning... That's the price u have to pay when living in New England.
