About Us

The Brimfield Elementary School is a member of the Tantasqua Regional School District/Union #61. As a member of School Union #61, Brimfield maintains its own local elementary school for grades K-6, but joins the towns of Brookfield, Holland, Wales and Sturbridge in sending its students to Tantasqua Regional Junior and Senior High Schools for grades 7-9 and 10-12 respectively.

The physical plant has several specialized features of which we are proud, including a computer room, science lab, and library/media center. The school, surrounded by aesthetic thematic gardens, opens its doors to various town and youth organizations. Strong parental involvement is demonstrated through volunteer support, an active P.T.O., a strong recreation program, the Brimfield School Advisory Council, and the Brimfield School Committee.
