Prior to consolidation, the school was known as Burton High School and its mascot was the Maple Leaf. The current location of Berkshire High School is the former residence of Seabury Ford, governor of Ohio. Unlike most American high schools, Berkshire High School is composed of grades seven through twelve.

Berkshire High School as of 2015 now includes students from Ledgemont High School, as Ledgemont closed their high school and is now an elementary that is part of the Berkshire Camups.
