To the Editor:

Town meeting should reject Article 41 because sexual orientation, color of skin, health and wellness, gender, environmental issues and changes in the meaning of English words (including the word rainbow) are not well-represented by a flag in any community.

Work in the community to make the American flag ensure inclusivity, support, a sense of belonging, respect for others and acceptance among human beings who have the right to live with dignity.

If this flag is added to the three now recognized we could ask: Where does it end? The American flag represents the hope we all have for our community.

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.
