Building the Future of Berston.
An all-new gymnasium will triple the size of Berston’s existing field house with basketball courts and an elevated track. The current field house will be completely remodeled to provide dedicated spaces for a boxing gym, art and music rooms, dance studios, a bike room, locker rooms, meeting spaces and a large community room. Recently acquired land surrounding Berston will feature all-new outdoor basketball and pickleball courts, a softball diamond, and football/soccer/lacrosse fields. An amphitheater for outdoor performances and a splashpad (in place of Berston’s original pool) will bring more options for activity to the campus. A children’s playground and new parking lots are also planned.
