I just posted but I want to make reply about all the other reviews. I hear the teachers are great, the education is great, but the school is not. Now, I do understand that we have higher expectations than when before AC was available, however, I don't think not having AC makes a school horrible. I believe it would have been just as affective if they updated the heating and AC systems and built extra rooms onto the school, as spending a lot of extra money on this new building. I'm not saying it's not nice to get something "new" but to save money, we could have just updated a few things, added more wonderful caring teachers and classrooms to make smaller classroom settings. The student to teacher ratios just aren't true on this site. All of them around say something like 15-16 students, per teacher. I have never seen a classroom without less than 23 students per classroom and that can reach as high as 28 students. It's hard not to be distracted with that many students and for teachers to teach that many children, especially w ADHD and autism on the rise. Like I said, though, I love Bennett and all of It's teachers. I have only seen wonderful things from the school.

I notice that this school hasn't been Reviewed in quite some time by parents that actually have do deal with the school. This school has gone downhill quickly since my kids started attending in 2017. There a handful of teachers that are wonderful but your chances of getting them are not worth the risk of having a horrible school year with someone else. I am very saddened by the state of the schools in the county to the point of our family moving away this summer just to get a better chance for our kids to succeed. A 3/10 is not acceptable in my book. Covid has definitely changed things for everyone but it's not an excuse for what has happened. I'm not sure how they get the information that the classes that students per teacher are 10:1 because both of my kids have been in classes with over 20 kids each year. I'm not sure how often this is updated or how much stock you should put on the reporting data but from what I see listed on here currently with this school it doesn't seem to be accurate. It's very sad to see Wicomico county schools in the state that they are in.

My LGBT student has faced bullying and unequal treatment from students and staff. Attempts to address the issue have been unsuccessful. The special ed coordinator, however, is excellent.

The administration & staff are wonderful with the students, take time for parents & ensure that our children are safe.
