It might have been a decent school for those with no mental disabilities, but for those that did, at least for my personal experience, was a total nightmare. I was expelled in ninth grade due to the staff's and faculty's "inability to properly handle the situation". Now my review is coming from around a decade ago, so things may have drastically changed since then, so please take this review with a grain of salt. This was just my experience from then, and for possibly other millenials that attended this school. You will likely get better or more accurate feedback from those who recently attended, or are currently attending (not counting the Covid-19 outbreak shutdown).Also credit is where credit is due, the principal of the school did acknowledge the inability to properly handle my situation, and had actively defended me during a hearing, not placing the blame upon me. So while there is a redeeming quality in the morality of the head staff, unless things have changed in that school since I attended, I would not recommend sending your child there. I had a much better experience within my brief time at District 1 within South Carolina at Saxe Gotha Elementary. I don't know how the higher level schools are there, but my experience at Saxe Gotha was actually quite nice and I had rather pleasant memories there. I cannot say the same for District 3's schools, at least not to the same degree.

Batesburg-Leesville High School has offered my son an excellent opportunity to excel in the classroom. The small class sizes and teacher involvement gives all students the one on one attention that you won't find in a larger school. My son also plays sports and has received many opportunities on the field.

Batesburg-Leesville High School provided challenging courses and many extra-curricular activities for my children. We loved the small class size and individualized attention that the faculty and staff provided. I feel that both of my children are well-equipped to handle college because of the education they received at B-L High.
