What Is the Vision Behind the Bexley Facilities Project?

The Bexley Facilities Project is a long-range, three-phase plan designed to ensure Bexley remains a top-performing school district for the next 100 years. Developed with extensive community input, the plan balances educational needs, necessary facility repairs, and fiscal responsibility.

Our goal is to modernize learning environments, improve aging infrastructure, and make the best possible use of Bexley’s limited footprint while continuing to deliver the high-quality education our community expects.

What Comes Next After Phase I?

Phase I is the first step in a three-phase plan. While it is too early to set firm timelines for Phases II and III, the district is committed to transparency and will engage the community before moving forward with any additional phases.

Future phases could include:

  • Additional capital expenditure system upgrades prioritized across the district
  • Updates to Bexley High School to modernize learning spaces, or a possibly construct a new high school building 
  • Updates and possible additions of new space to all three elementary schools
  • Use of the current middle school space as “swing space” during future upgrades to other buildings
  • Removal or partial removal of the existing middle school structure to create more green space in Central Bexley
  • Potential development of athletic and outdoor learning opportunities on the Cassady Avenue land

Why Consider a Hybrid Funding Approach?

A hybrid approach:

  • Balances the impact across homeowners and income earners
  • Provides a more equitable funding structure for residents
  • Maintains flexibility for the district as financial conditions evolve


The Board of Education will evaluate funding options carefully before making its final decision.
