SBRSD Closed Tuesday: Tomorrow’s forecast calls for very cold temperatures and extreme wind chills. This may mean diesel fuel will gel and buses may not run. In addition, the obligation to keep bus windows cracked open will make riding the buses way too cold. Due to these conditions, the Southern Berkshire Regional School District will be closed on Tuesday, January 11th. Upon returning to school, please make sure your children dress warmly for riding the bus in the winter. We are sorry for this inconvenience.

The first meeting of the Internship Partnership will be held on Wednesday January 12 at 6:00PM on

Anyone interested in hearing about the program and or wanting to become a mentor please join us.
