BERLIN — Students filed out of Brown Elementary School for summer vacation Wednesday for the last time. The district is closing the school that educated thousands of Berlin’s children since it opened in 1913.

An open house at the school Tuesday afternoon attracted a steady stream of former and current students and staff. Chief among them were Superintendent of Schools Corinne Cascadden and Acting Principal Susan Griffin.
