Colrain, Massachusetts
The Mohawk Trail Schools by the Numbers
A snapshot of the Mohawk Trail Regional School District, the eight-town district that educates about 758 students. Colrain does not run a district of its own, so these figures cover the whole region, not Colrain alone. Detailed data comes from the state Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE).
