Mount Greylock School Committee Candidate Q&As

By Stephen DravisiBerkshires Staff

WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — Six candidates are running in the November election for the four 4-year terms open on the seven-person Mount Greylock Regional School Committee.

All voters in the two member towns can cast ballots for up to two candidates from among three people running for the Lanesborough representative seats and up to two candidates from among the three vying for the two Williamstown seats. This year, voters will have to write in their choices as an error prevented the candidates' names from appearing on the ballot.

iBerkshires asked all six candidates about their views and positions on topics relative to the School Committee. You can find their answers on our candidates' page here.
