The wooded area on either side of Dayton-Xenia Road is the 44.439 acre Ferguson Land Laboratory. The Fergusons were prominent farmers since the settling of Beavercreek and by the 1940’s were the largest growers of potatoes in the area. They donated this land to the Board of Education with the stipulation that it remain forever untouched woodland.
Completed in 1954, the present Beavercreek High School was built adjacently upon 33 acres of Ferguson land that was purchased by the Board of Education and the Ferguson Hall Campus behind sits on another sixteen acres that was donated by brother and sister Edwin and Lida Ferguson.
