At Berlin CSD, per the CDC guidance, we are proceeding with weekly COVID testing, in lieu of cancelling sports or imposing vaccination requirements.
In addition to the CDC guidance our local health departments are seeing an increase in people who are vaccinated test positive for COVID.
Our goal is to keep students in school and be able to participate in extracurricular activities including keeping our sports open throughout the season.
High Risk Sports (ex. Volleyball in Fall) – All athletes will be tested, regardless of vaccination status.
Moderate/Low Risk sports (ex. Soccer, Cross Country in Fall) – All athletes will be tested, regardless of vaccination status.

As with any school activity, athletes should not come to practice or games if they are showing any symptoms related to COVID.
This policy may change in the future based on further guidance from the CDC, the DOH, the Wasaren League, or our Medical Director.
We greatly appreciate everyone’s support and understanding as we move forward with all levels of athletics in a safe manner.
If your child is vaccinated and you haven’t already done so, please submit a copy of your child’s COVID immunization card to Michele Corsey, RN, school nurse ASAP at mcorsey@berlincentral.org
Please contact either BCSD Athletic Director Charles Paravella cparavella@berlincentral.org or Michele Corsey, RN, mcorsey@berlincentral.org with any questions or concerns.
