Tahanto Regional High

Berlin-Boylston

Berlin and Boylston are small, rural towns in central Massachusetts, located about 40 miles west of Boston in Worcester County. The two communities joined together to form the Tahanto Regional School District, with the district name derived from Native American words meaning "hills" and "ponds," reflecting the area's rolling, wooded landscape. Both towns maintain their historic New England character with town commons, colonial-era buildings, and a strong sense of local community.
