This week, students at South Egremont followed coyote tracks and cracked/roasted Black Walnuts gathered in the Fall! Students designed a special place to slide down the snow and played a game about a weasel chasing voles through snow tunnels.
From Ms. Cooke:
"Once a month we get to spend part of our day with our beloved Flying Deer instructor in the nature surrounding our school in the village of South Egremont through a grant from The Berkshire Taconic Foundation and the Eagle /Janet’s Fund."

"For more than seven thousand years, poetry has been the recording device, the warehouse of human existence.... Poetry won't tell you how to live.....but it can reveal what it means to be alive." – a snippet of Mr. Wolgemuth's pep talk to students before they bravely recited a memorized poem in front of their classmates as part of the annual Poetry Out Loud program.

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
