We have obtained Spitzer Space Telescope Multiband Imaging Photometer for Spitzer (MIPS) 24 µm and 70 µm observations of 215 nearby, Hipparcos B- and A-type common proper-motion single and binary systems in the nearest OB association, Scorpius-Centaurus. Combining our MIPS observations with those of other ScoCen stars in the literature, we estimate 24 µm B+A-type disk fractions of 17/67 (25⁺⁶_- 5_%), 36/131 (27⁺⁴_- 4_%), and 23/95 (24⁺⁵_- 4_%) for Upper Scorpius (∼11 Myr), Upper Centaurus Lupus (∼15 Myr), and Lower Centaurus Crux (∼17 Myr), respectively, somewhat smaller disk fractions than previously obtained for F- and G-type members. We confirm previous IRAS excess detections and present new discoveries of 51 protoplanetary and debris disk systems, with fractional infrared luminosities ranging from L_IR/L _*= 10^–6 to 10^–2 and grain temperatures ranging from T_gr= 40 to 300 K. In addition, we confirm that the 24 µm and 70 µm excesses (or fractional infrared luminosities) around B+A-type stars are smaller than those measured toward F+G-type stars and hypothesize that the observed disk property dependence on stellar mass may be the result of a higher stellar companion fraction around B- and A-type stars at 10-200 AU. Finally, we note that the majority of the ScoCen 24 µm excess sources also possess 12 µm excess, indicating that Earth-like planets may be forming via collisions in the terrestrial planet zone at ∼10-100 Myr.
