WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — The composition of the Mount Greylock Regional School Committee likely will remain unchanged after November's election.
 
Only three incumbent members of the seven-member panel returned nomination papers for the seats that will be on the ballot for voters in Lanesborough and Williamstown on Nov. 5.
 
Lanesborough resident Ursula Maloy and Williamstown's Julia Bowen and Jose Constantine each will be seeking another four-year term on the committee.
 
Bowen and Constantine each will be seeking a second full term on the School Committee after they were elected to the post in 2020.
 
Maloy was appointed to fill 18 months of an unexpired term in 2021 and then elected to fill the remainder of that term in November 2022.
 
Residents of both the regional school district's member towns vote on all seven seats on the committee. That's why, unlike other local elections, the positions are decided in November of federal election years instead of in the spring, when towns hold their elections on varying days.
 
Per the regional agreement, three of the seats on the School Committee are filled by Lanesborough residents and four are filled by residents of Williamstown, the larger of the two member towns.
