To the Editor:

Dear North Adams Neighbors,

We are writing today in support of the new Greylock School project. Education has always been our family's priority, and we were very lucky to have received a complete early childhood education. Early education is the foundation on which everything in a community, such as ours, is built upon.

The effects of the new school project will be felt for generations and build a strong foundation for the future of our community. This is why the passing of the Greylock School Project, an opportunity provided to all children in North Adams, is important to us and our family.

Please support the Greylock School Project and come out to vote on Oct. 8 because it will be crucial for securing a brighter, stronger community. Let’s come together to make a lasting impact on the children of North Adams.

Grace and Charlotte Towler
North Adams, Mass.
