History
In Beavercreek Township, the first school was a log building on farm property. The first high school, Beavercreek Township High School, was built in 1888. In 1932, the high school, along with other Beavercreek schools, moved into one building, currently known as Main Elementary School. In 1950, the current Beavercreek High School was completed, though it has been renovated and expanded since. It changed from a four year to a three year high school in 1973 due to overcrowding. In the fall of 1999, the high school returned to a four year system.
