The magazine U.S. NEWS AND WORLD REPORT has included Bexley High
School in the top 505 of its first ever list of America’s Best
High
Schools. Bexley scored a silver medal, a ranking achieved by
only seven other Franklin County public high schools. The
ranking shows which schools set the best examples of “how to
prepare students to achieve their post-graduation goals.”
According to Principal John Kellogg, “Essentially, to ‘score’
well in the ranking, a school needs to
provide programs that work to help ALL students be academically
successful."
