Original Research by School Decision on Trebein Elementary School
Trebein Elementary School is a regular public school in Xenia serving kindergarten through fifth grade, located in the Beavercreek City School District. The school sits in a growing part of Greene County, where housing values are moderate and families are increasingly moving to new subdivisions on the city's edges.
The school's academic results are strong across the board. In math, the most recent results show proficiency well above the midpoint among Greene County districts, placing the school in the top quartile. Reading and language arts show similarly strong performance, as does science. The school tests all its students and achieves full participation in state assessments. State testing has not provided multi-year trend data, so a parent cannot yet track whether these results represent sustained performance or a recent shift. The overall proficiency index calculated across all tested subjects places the school among the highest-performing schools in the county.
The student body is predominantly white, with smaller populations of students identifying as two or more races, Asian, Hispanic, and Black. Only a small share of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, which aligns with the broader community profile: the area around the school is relatively affluent, with median home values above the state benchmark and median rents rising steadily. Unemployment in the region is stable. The Xenia area is anchored by healthcare and education employment, with Wright-Patterson Air Force Base drawing aerospace and defense contractors regionally.
Trebein's enrollment is substantial for an elementary school of its grade band, distributed fairly evenly across kindergarten through fifth grade. Data on students receiving special education services or English language learner support was not available, so a parent would want to inquire directly about these programs and their capacity.
The school is located along Dayton-Xenia Road on the edge of Xenia proper. The town itself is the Greene County seat, about halfway between Dayton and Springfield, with a downtown anchored by the courthouse and a strong identity around rail trails and bicycle culture. The city's economy is diversified across healthcare, retail, manufacturing, and public services, and the community is in a growth phase: a major mixed-use downtown development called the Market District broke ground in late 2024, and new residential subdivisions are under construction on the city's outer edges. Population has been roughly stable to slightly increasing.
At the district level, families should be aware of an ongoing facilities issue. Beavercreek City Schools has faced rising enrollment pressure and currently rents portable classrooms as a workaround, a cost-intensive and temporary solution. The district put forward a bond issue twice, in November 2024 and May 2025, that would have built a new high school and reconfigured grade assignments across buildings, but voters rejected it both times. This unresolved capacity issue is not unique to Trebein but affects how the district manages growth. On the positive side, in November 2025 voters approved renewal of the district's largest operating levy, maintaining current operations and services without a tax increase beginning in 2027, which provides budget stability.
Trebein appears well-suited for families seeking an elementary school with strong test results in a growing, moderate-income suburb with good walkability and community identity. The school's academic standing is clearly above average for its county. Parents weighing the Beavercreek district more broadly should ask about the district's response to enrollment pressure and the portable classroom footprint, as well as the school's specific special education and English learner capacity.
