Berkshire School BERKSHIRE SCHOOL Sheffield, MA Director of Information Technology Start Date: July 1, 2019 www.berkshireschool.org OVERVIEW Berkshire School is a coeducational boarding and day school for students in grades 9-12 and post-graduates. One of the finest of its kind in the country, Berkshire’s commitment to lifelong learning stretches across all aspects of its offerings—academics, arts, athletics, and campus life—and has led to achievement in every corner of campus. With nearly 90% of graduates earning acceptance to the most selective colleges and universities in the country, students are well prepared for the learning and life opportunities that await them in college and beyond. The 400-acre campus is located at the base of Mount Everett (2,624 ft.) in Sheffield, Massachusetts, in the heart of the Berkshire Hills, a popular tourist destination for world- renowned arts and culture and spectacular nature. Berkshire is characterized by a close-knit community where everyone knows everyone else and relationships are meaningful. Students are invested in their relationships with each other and with the faculty. All of Berkshire’s constituencies work hard to build an environment that is competitive and compassionate, confident and humble, purposeful and spontaneous. Effective July 2019, Berkshire School seeks a Director of Information Technology to provide leadership, vision, and strategic planning for all aspects of educational and information technology as it relates to the mission and operation of the school. Reporting to the Head of School, they will assume overall responsibility for the school’s technology infrastructure and its efficient and effective use to support teaching, learning and daily operations. The Director of Information Technology will lead a talented and dedicated team of IT experts and will serve as a key strategic partner for faculty, staff, administration, parents, and the board. The ideal candidate has both education and leadership experience as well as technology skill and understands and is able to communicate both the how and the why of technology in an innovative, 21st-century school environment.

Our community fosters diversity, a dedication to environmental stewardship, and an enduring love for learning. The Search Group | Carney, Sandoe & Associates 3 ACADEMICS Berkshire’s academic program teaches students for life, providing them with the tools necessary to excel—academically and personally—in college and preparing them to become successful adults. Teachers harness students’ intellectual curiosity and extend the classroom with access to state-of-the-art technology. In all classes and across all disciplines, students master critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and communication—skills that will help them become productive members of the school community and meaningful contributors to the extended global community. The school’s state-of-the-art facilities and an expansive selection of classes and programs complement its small class sizes and close faculty relationships, offering the advantages of large, well-endowed schools and small, close-knit ones. Students pursue a wide array of courses in art, English, history, language, math, and science. In language courses—including Chinese, French, Spanish, and Latin— they prepare to live in a fast-moving world. The LEED Gold certified Bellas/Dixon Math and Science Center provides students with state-of- the-art technology, such as 3D printers, allowing them to gain hands-on experience in a first-rate research environment comparable to the country’s top research facilities. Berkshire’s 10 Signature Programs—Advanced Math/Science Research, Advanced Humanities Research, STEAM, Pro Vita Winter Session, Sabin Entrepreneurial Prize, Aviation Science, Independent Study, Black Rock Scholars, Sustainability, and Ritt Kellogg Mountain Program— are all designed to expand minds, provide real-world experiences, and help distinguish students in an increasingly competitive college process. The Search Group | Carney, Sandoe & Associates 4 SHEFFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS Berkshire School is located in scenic Sheffield, Massachusetts, along the banks of the Konkapot River and at the foot of two mountains: Mount Everett and East Mountain. Known for its great natural beauty, the Berkshires is home to myriad hiking trails, nature preserves, and iconic, artsy New England towns. The Berkshires was named among the 200 Last Great Places by The Nature Conservancy and is a wonderful place to live and visit. Notable for its artistic culture, the Berkshires includes art museums such as the Norman Rockwell Museum, the Clark Institute, the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art, and the Williams College Museum of Art. The Tanglewood music Center in Lenox is the summer home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, where picnickers can lounge on the lawn and listen to the strains of one of the best classical ensembles in the country. Summer stock theater and dance festivals, such as the Williamstown Theatre Festival, the Barrington Stage Company, the Berkshire Theatre Festival, and Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival, are eagerly attended by residents and visitors alike. Approximately 2.5 hours from Boston and New York City and 1.5 hours from Albany and Hartford, the school is centrally located and accessible to several highways and airports. Nearby Great Barrington, MA (named 2012 “Best Small Town in America” by Smithsonian magazine), Lenox, MA, and Salisbury, CT, are frequent destinations for residential students and faculty. Charming, peaceful, and quintessentially New England, the Berkshires is a wonderful place to call home.

Gentlemen : — Enclosed please find the annual report of the Greylock Reservation Commission. Very respectfully yours^ FRANCIS W. ROCKWELL, Chairman. GREYLOCK RESERVATION COMMISSION. PiTTSFiELD, Mass., Jan. 1, 1916. To the Committee on Revision. Gentlemen : — The records kept by the secretaries of the Greylock Reservation Commission are very brief. In order to keep the public informed, and to make it easier for the gentlemen who may succeed the present com- mission, we place in the annual report facts and references which will give a better understanding of the work of the Commission. These references will enable all interested hereafter in the reservation to find what has been done and the methods employed in the general conduct of reservation matters. While the records in the State Auditor's, State Treasurer's and Attorney-General's offices will explain the expenditure of the funds appropriated by the Commonwealth, and while the annual reports of the treasurer of the Commis- sion to the Berkshire county commissioners will aid in the matter, it remains true that many matters of interest can be found only in the county press, — hence the references to the newspapers of Berkshire. Many inquiries pertaining to the history of the mountain and reservation are made of the Commission. These ques- tions can best be answered by the references given in the brief bibliography and references written for this report.
