The Old Batesburg-Leesville High School, also known as Batesburg-Leesville Middle School, was a historic school building located in Batesburg-Leesville, Lexington County, South Carolina. Built in 1921, the two-story, red brick structure , set on a raised basement, was designed in the Tudor Gothic Revival style. Notable features included a low parapet roof banded in concrete, flanking pavilions, and a Tudor arched entranceway.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.

The building was demolished in August 2017 due to vandalism, asbestos concerns, and plumbing issues.
