I have greatly enjoyed my time at Bennington for several reasons. The quality of education and teaching staff, the cleanliness and maintenance of the buildings and campus, the diversity of extracurricular activities and sports, and the community and vibe of the school are all factors of why I am proud to call myself a Bennington Badger. Bennington Secondary School is very nice with additions being created all the time to keep the school updated. The campus and landscaping are nice, and the students overall are proud of their school and keep classrooms clean.
I recently moved to Bennington unexpectedly for my senior year, Bennington has been very welcoming and has challenged my in many more ways than I have been before academically. I would definitely encourage people in this area to attend Bennington if they had the option because I feel as if their education and programs offered as extra-curricular activities are outstanding. Getting an education at Bennington is something people should prize and be proud of. The staff has been very supportive and helpful throughout my transition as well.
I started at Bennington Public School when I was in kindergarten. My experience was very amazing. They answered all your needed questions and was able to help you prepare for the real world. I was able to get the best leaders and support all through high school. Some thing I would like to see changed within the school district is being more vocal with not just the staff, but as well as the students, so we all have a clear mind and understand what is going on.
