Berlin High School is a public high school located in Berlin, Connecticut, United States.

Overview

The current high school building on Patterson Way was opened in 1953.

An addition was added to the high school in 1959, which included science labs and other rooms. It also underwent technology and handicap code upgrades that were completed in 2000. An additional round of code renovations is forthcoming, in response to areas of concern identified by a recent visit by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges.

History

Campus

The Berlin High School building on Patterson Way houses all the educational rooms of the school. There are 75 classrooms, two gymnasiums, music rooms, and various other supporting rooms. The campus also includes a newly renovated outdoor track, practice football field, tennis courts, two basketball courts, and a softball field.

The high school is (as of May 2013) under reconstruction and is scheduled to be completed in 2017. This was delayed by snow storms in December 2012 and January 2013, but the completion date remains the same.
