Bexley High School (BHS) is a public high school located in Bexley, Ohio, a suburb of Columbus.

In 2016, the program earned its first home playoff game and first playoff win, and went 11–1. The program also earned a playoff spot in the 2008, 2013, 2014, and 2015 seasons.

The Men's and women's soccer teams have combined for 12 state final fours since 1999. The men's team has won two state championships (in 2003 and 2005) and has appeared in multiple Final Four and Regional Finals. They have also had a flurry of All District, All State, and two All American selections. The men's program won their league championship for 15 straight seasons until the streak was ended in 2009. The women have been one of the most consistent teams of their sport in the state; they were state finalists in 1999 through 2003, 2005, and 2006; state runners up in 1999; and state champions in 2009. The women have also had multiple all district, all state, and all American recipients. Ross Friedman was a four year letter winner and captained the team his junior and senior years. During his tenure at Bexley, he led the team to two state semi final appearances, earning first team All MSL as a junior, first team all district, first team all state and NSCAA all region as a senior.

The wrestling program has had individual successes throughout the school's history. There have been numerous state qualifiers, 10 state placers and one state champion. As a team there has not been a great deal of success until recently when they earned a Mid State League Title in 2017 for first time since 1998. A team dual record of 17 2 was also set in 2017 breaking the previous season record of 16–3. The program currently has successful youth and junior high teams as well.

The 2018 season was one of the most successful in program history with the team going 14 9 and winning two games in the state tournament (defeating Licking Valley and London). The Lions advanced to the district semi finals and fell to Hebron Lakewood.

Bexley's rival is the Columbus Academy Vikings. This competition stems from Columbus Academy being just two miles from Bexley High School before Academy's move to Gahanna, Ohio. Other rivals of Bexley include the Grandview Heights Bobcats, the Bishop Hartley Hawks, the Whitehall Yearling High School Rams and the St. Charles Cardinals.

There are over 100 students in the band program at the school.

High School Band consists of three separate fields of study starting with the Marching Band during the football season which begins in the summer. For one week, students come together to begin to learn the music as well as the marching for each song. Marching Band is a Co Curricular Board of Education supported class, which follows district policies and students receive a grade.

Concert Band begins at the conclusion of the football season. The students are split into two bands for the Concert Band Season Symphonic Band and Prism. Concerts are graded performances, including OMEA Contests, and opportunities for OMEA Solo and Ensemble. The Concert Band is a Co Curricular, Board of Education supported class where students receive a grade and credit for participation.

Pep Band, considered an extension of the Marching Band, is an opportunity to perform for men's and women's home varsity basketball games. It is a volunteer band composed of students from the school band program.

Jazz Band is a Co Curricular, Board of Education supported class where students receive a grade and credit for participation. It performs several concerts throughout the year. To join, auditions are necessary, and most instruments are accepted. The Jazz Band has traveled to conferences (Beaver Creek Jazz Festival and Capital University Jazz and World Music Festival).

The Bexley High School Orchestra is in two classes: Concert Orchestra, which is the entry level orchestra and Sinfonia Orchestra, which is the highest level performance group in the program. During the summer is Orchestra Camp (parallel to Band Camp, which occurs at the same time) which has been in session since 1975.

A high school entry level group, this ensemble concentrates on building the necessary technical skills for an advanced performance level.

The highest level performance group in the orchestra program, this ensemble performs complex and difficult orchestral literature.
