Batesburg-Leesville High School has great resources and ties to new technology. Every student gets their own laptop and teachers strongly tie in lessons with new technological activities. The overall student experience is great because the school is willing to meet with every student to improve their needs.

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 arou...

Batesburg-Leesville High School has offered my son an excellent opportunity to excel in the classroom.
