The Bexley City School District has earned an “excellent with distinction” rating from the Ohio Department of Education for ten consecutive years.  Bexley’s overall district report card Performance Index (104.8) is its highest ever. Students benefit from class sizes that permit personal attention and foster academic excellence; they also enjoy a wide variety of course and extra-curricular options.  

Bexley is among the two percent of Ohio school districts offering foreign language instruction in the elementary grades.  Certified professionals teach visual and performing arts throughout the entire K-12 Bexley curriculum, differentiating it from that of most public school systems.

Both Newsweek and U.S. News & World Report recognize Bexley High School as one of the top public high schools in the country. Ten percent of the class of 2010 was eligible for the National Merit Scholarship Program.  The graduation rate of the class of 2009 was 99.5 percent, while the college matriculation rate was 95 percent. 

Education Best Practices 
Bexley values academic excellence and aims to measure up to world-class standards.  All content areas prepare students to participate in the 19 Advanced Placement (AP) courses at the high school level.  Bexley Middle School is Ohio’s only authorized International Baccalaureate (IB) Middle Years Program. 

Cassingham Elementary became Ohio’s first IB Primary Years Program in 2007.  Montrose Elementary uses the IMPACT Literacy K-6 best practice and Maryland Elementary is affiliated with the Effective Schools Process.

Distinctive Characteristics 
Teachers average over 16 years of classroom experience, with 82 percent holding at least a masters degree. 

A high level of community involvement characterizes the Bexley school system, which receives considerable support from the Bexley Education Foundation, a nonprofit that funds school programs for which tax dollars are not available. Financial ratings institutions praise Bexley’s sound financial operations, solid voter history and conservative fiscal management.
