Mount Greylock School Committee Hears Need for More Teachers

By Stephen DravisiBerkshires Staff
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — Things are not adding up for the math department at Mount Greylock Regional School.
 
And there are at least two other departments that are struggling with numbers, the School Committee learned on Thursday.
 
Mount Greylock Principal Jacob Schutz outlined for the elected officials the fiscal year 2026 budget request from the School Council, one of three appointed bodies of faculty, staff and community members charged with advocating for the member schools in the regional district.
 
It's a big ask for a committee that has been making hard choices to contain costs and limit assessments to the member towns of Lanesborough and Williamstown. The middle-high school council is requesting the addition of three full-time teachers in the next fiscal year — one each in the math, wellness and world languages departments.
 
Those are the three "needs" for Mount Greylock, Schutz told the School Committee. The council also submitted a list of its top three "wants" for the school. That list includes three more FTE positions: a visual arts teacher for the middle school, a behaviorist and a district-wide coordinator of 504 plans, the programs that outline accommodations for students with disabilities.
 
For teachers, the district has a ballpark course of between $80,000 and $85,000 to cover salary and insurance, depending on a new hire's qualifications, interim Superintendent Joseph Bergeron told the School Committee.
 
Schutz outlined why the School Council is asking the district to make those investments, all of which would align with the previously presented School Improvement Plan for Mount Greylock.
