Bus Stop Highlight:
Batesburg-Leesville Primary School

Principal: Mrs. Dawn Harden

 

Personalized learning is the overarching philosophy that drives the vision for BL Primary School.  Classroom environments are designed to allow students to take ownership of their learning through goal-setting, self-direction, and competency-based instruction.  Students use data notebooks to track their own progress through regular conferencing and formative feedback from teachers.  

Montessori, coding for littles, and early interventions are all part of BL Primary School's transformative practices.  A visit to BL Primary will highlight our Montessori classrooms where students engage in multi-age learning environments, computer coding practices that support language and literacy development, and the BOOST program where students and families of two-and-three-year olds are provided weekly education outreach to promote successful transition into the school environment.

Join us to learn more about BLPS and their innovative practices on Thursday, September 26.
