School Notes:
  • Bryan Station High School, founded in 1958, is a high school within the Fayette County public school system in Lexington, Kentucky. The school was named for Bryan Station, a 1700's pioneer settlement. The school mascot is the Defender in reference to the defense of the settlement during the American Revolutionary War. The school's motto is Defenders today, leaders tomorrow. The building received a full renovation in 1979. Bryan Station is also home to a youth center.
  • Academics: Bryan Station has a state merit rating in six academic departments. This past two-year period, BSHS met its threshold for the KIRIS Accountability Testing. With a new grant from the city and a new state-of-the art building currently under construction Bryan Station plans move its status to the top of the state's academic high schools.
  • Athletics: The Defenders support 15 different sports teams including football, basketball, soccer, baseball, softball, volleyball, swimming and track and field. The Defenders' football team has made three trips to the state championship game winning the 1971 2A title. The Defenders' boys track team took home titles in 1971, 1975, and 1979-83 while the Lady Defenders' track team won titles in 1976-79, 1981-82, and 1987-88.
