Bamberg County School District

The district was established in 2022 as a merger of Bamberg School District One and Bamberg School District Two. Circa 2019 the state government of South Carolina offered money to small school districts willing to consolidate. A belief in these districts was that the state government could at another point force a consolidation and not give additional money to the forcibly merged districts. This prompted the merger of the Bamberg County districts. ==Schools==
