Should Pittsfield restructure middle school grades?
PITTSFIELD, Mass. (WWLP) – The Pittsfield School District is also looking to hear from residents on the proposal to restructure middle school grades.
They're considering redistricting the middle schools to divide the city's two schools by grade, rather than location. It would create one school for students in 5th and 6th grade, and another for 7th and 8th.

They say it'll help them focus more on the needs of each group. The School Committee is holding a public hearing on Wednesday, June 11th, at City Hall at 5:15 p.m. Following the public hearing, the School Committee will determine whether to move the proposal forward for a vote on June 25th.
If the committee votes to approve the change, it would go into effect in the fall.
