Berrien RESA recognizes that realtors are some of education's foremost liaisons when families are considering moving to Berrien County. They are a strong source of information and provide tools to help our newest community members make critical decisions regarding their academic options. To aid in that effort, Berrien RESA has developed this web page which includes links to local school districts, calendars and other resources prospective home buyers may find helpful. 

If you or the clients you serve have questions about educational opportunities in Berrien County, please feel free to contact Berrien RESA via email at info@berrienresa.org.
