BERKELEY COUNTY, S.C. — Berkeley County School District is preparing to open the doors to two brand new schools this fall, a milestone district leaders say reflects the rapid growth occurring across the county.
Over the past week, district officials, elected leaders, staff members and community residents gathered to celebrate ribbon-cutting ceremonies for Bee Tree Elementary in the Jedburg area and Midtown Middle in Nexton. Both schools are scheduled to welcome their first students when the 2026-27 school year begins in August.
The new campuses represent the latest effort by the district to keep pace with continued residential growth in Berkeley County, one of the fastest-growing counties in South Carolina.
