Mohawk Trail Regional High School is a school located on Route 112 in Buckland, Massachusetts, United States. The public school currently serves grades 7–12 for nine towns: Ashfield, Buckland, Charlemont, Colrain, Hawley, Heath, Plainfield, Rowe and Shelburne.
History
Mohawk opened in September 1967, at a construction cost of $2,705,000.[3] Previously, middle school and high school students from western Franklin County, Massachusetts had attended smaller schools, including Sanderson Academy in Ashfield, Charlemont High School in Charlemont, Arms Academy in Shelburne, and Crittenden Junior High School in Buckland.
Administration
Lynn Dole became principal after the departure of six-year principal Brian Beck, who left Mohawk to become the principal of Athol High School. Joey Kotwright-Clark served as vice-principal from the 2009–2010 school year to the end of the 2013–2014 school year after the departure of Robert Thibault, who chose to work closer to his own home. As of the beginning of the 2014–2015 school year, Jesse Porter-Henry took over as vice-principal. Beginning in the 2015-2016 school year, Mohawk is led by two Co-Principals, Lynn Dole and Marisa Mendonsa, rather than a Principal and Assistant Principal.[citation needed]
