St. Charles Convocation Center

Bexley, OH

The Centerpiece: A Unique Convocation Center

The new, single-story convocation center stands out with its innovative design. The octagonal steel frame minimizes the building's physical footprint while maximizing usable space. Traditional brickwork gives way to a beautiful glulam beam roof structure with wooden decking. Topped with lightweight faux Spanish tiles, it maintains the desired aesthetic without the extra weight.

Spacious & Functional Interior

Inside, the impressive 150+ foot clear spans create a large, open space. This flexible venue can host students and guests for various athletic events and programs. Amenities include two full-size basketball courts, a hall dedicated to celebrating achievements, locker rooms, and concession stands.
