Did you know? This past January marked a significant milestone - 60 years since the 1964 plane crash at Beavercreek High School!
On January 3, 1964, the fuselage of an RB-57D Canberra twin-jet reconnaissance plane crashed in a parking lot of the school. With over 2,000 students, teachers, and workers present, it was a moment etched in our community's history.
Despite the harrowing circumstances, we're grateful to report that no one was injured and little damage was done. To read more about this event, visit -https://www.beavercreekliving.com/beavercreek-blog/itemlist/tag/Crash
