Worcester County government and school officials are moving forward with plans to replace Berlin Intermediate School, providing this image to the county commissioners as part of a feasibility study.
Worcester County officials this week gave the green light to advance Berlin Intermediate School’s replacement project to the state level.
The Worcester County Commissioners on Tuesday unanimously approved a feasibility study that recommends demolishing and rebuilding the 55-year-old facility, rather than renovating or adding onto it.
The proposal now heads to the Maryland Interagency Commission on School Construction, which must sign off before the project can move into the design phase.
The Worcester County Board of Education already endorsed the replacement option on March 17 after reviewing the same feasibility study.
If approved by the state, officials are targeting a spring 2029 groundbreaking and a fall 2031 opening, following the replacement of Buckingham Elementary School.
