    There's an air of calm and peace that circulates this tiny town, and I have never doubted my safety. The school system here has provided me with nothing but greatness, and there is nothing I would change about the policies/procedures that take place at Bedminster Township School. From Kindergarten, BTS rapidly became my second home, and I'm positive any other student that attended would say the same. Teachers at BTS have nothing but passion for teaching as well as a genuine care for their pupils. At the end of class, the goal is to ensure that every student is comfortable with the content. If needed, a teacher will take the extra step of meeting with a student to discuss the necessary means that are required for them to fully understand the concept. From BTS, students attend Bernards High School, a short, 10-minute commute from Bedminster. I am a 10th grader at BHS, and my experience so far has been brilliant all because of the preparation I received at Bedminster Township School.

    Beautiful town with gorgeous mountain views! Almost no night life at all. Just a nice, quiet town where you can have lots of peace and quiet. Relax in Bedminster!
    Quiet and pretty, not much to do though, so travel is a constant expense. The population can be diverse, but is mainly homologous. would like more night life and attractions, however nearby cities help fill that void. very beautiful in parts and has plenty of parks and wildlife reserves.
