Bessemer City Middle School is a community-focused school where students can explore their talents through strong academics, arts, athletics and clubs. With caring teachers, small-town spirit and rich traditions, it’s a place where every child can grow and thrive.

Thanks to our partnership with Kintegra Health, we offer a telehealth clinic here at our school. Students, who are experiencing a minor illness or condition, can be seen by a medical provider virtually. This allows us to provide care for students without them having to leave school to go to the doctor.
