Today was an exciting day of innovation and exploration at B-L Middle School! We were proud to welcome Palmetto AI Pathways to our campus as B-L Middle was selected as one of only 10 schools in South Carolina to take part in this incredible program. Our students had the opportunity to dive into hands-on robotics and technology experiences, including interacting with the SC Competes robotic dog, PAL (Palmetto Automated Learner). Through engaging lessons powered by IT-oLogy curriculum, students explored coding, robotics, and the growing world of artificial intelligence. We are so grateful to be part of this forward-thinking initiative and can’t wait to see how our students continue to innovate and lead the way!

South Carolina Teacher of the Year Corey Bedenbaugh made his way back to his roots (and old classroom) at B-L Middle School today to present a SC Department of Education Palmetto Pioneer Feature on Francis Marion. A former B-L Middle School Teacher of the Year, Corey went on to become the Lexington County School District Three Teacher of the Year...an honor that ultimately led to him being named as the 2026 South Carolina Teacher of the Year. We are grateful for Mr. Bedenbaugh's visit back home today and thank him for spending time with our students!

Thirty sixth-grade students from Batesburg-Leesville Middle School participated in the SCMEA Midlands 6th Grade Choral Clinic on Thursday, March 12th at Gilbert High School. Under the direction of clinician Dr. Augusto Gil, with accompanist Tammy Lorick, these talented students joined more than 250 singers from across the Midlands to rehearse and perform three musical selections. We are proud of these students for representing B-L Middle School and sharing their voices in this outstanding musical experience. Great job!
