April 5th: It’s a wrap for today’s competition; the Berlin Elementary Odyssey of the Mind Team performed at a high level against a very competitive field of 19 teams from across New York at the State Fair Grounds in Syracuse. Coach Bersaw and Coach Scanlon could not be prouder of the Mountaineers. The team will find out their results tonight! Way to go, Berlin OoTM!!
The Berlin Elementary School community is incredibly proud of their Odyssey of the Mind Mountaineer team and can’t wait to see them shine at States! This morning, BES students and staff gave the OoTM Mountaineers – Adel Derstine, Francis Maxfield, Jesse Cummings, Alaina Chittenden, Clara Church, Caraline Webster, and Rosalee Riccardi – a sendoff as they prepared to head to Syracuse for the state competition. Good luck! Let’s go Mountaineers! Read more about it here https://berlincentral.org/2025/03/17/berlin-central-school-districts-odyssey-of-the-mind-team-wins-first-place-and-advances-to-state-finals/
