Read what parents are saying about Barbara Benson Elementary SchoolHorrible school. Went there as a kid. Staff did nothing to support me and also got me in trouble when some kid harassed me. Terrible dress code AND that one rule that will get you kicked out if you defend yourself. Some of the teachers were nice, but most were inexperienced and one was particularly cruel. If your a "normal kid" you will probably be fine in this school. But if you have a condition like ADHD or autism its not gonna go well for you. Just enroll your kids in a better school than this one please.
Posted by a community member on 5/10/2023My daughter is thriving at Benson..the teachers, staff and principal are all so caring and so involved with all the students and concerns are quickly taken care of. Im so sad that Benson only goes up to 5th grade :(
Posted by a parent on 4/26/2019I have a 4th Grader and a TK student currently attending Benson Elementary. I am a big fan of this Elementary School. I love the quality of Education my kids are receiving, and the teachers and faculty are to thank for that. The students are spending their days with passionate educators and being exposed to quality programs. Respect, compassion and kindness are attributes modeled well at Benson. While occasional student conflicts and/or misbehaviors are to be expected with any population of kids, I find that Benson students are exceptionally kind to each other, well spoken and balanced children.Whenever a conflict does arise the teachers are accessible, and it is easy to coordinate with them in order to problem solve. I find the current Great Schools rating misleading, which is why I’m writing my own review. The kids are being challenged in a balanced way, not too much and not too little. The homework is comprehensive and not excessive. The faculty also offers tons of parent resources for at-home use including afterschool coordinating meetings, (which are elective). I’ve attended a few of these meetings where they’ll outline curriculum standards, and offer helpful resources and games for use at home. In closing, whatever state testing results occurred last year, does not a ‘Great School’ make. I’m thrilled to have my kids enrolled in this great school.
Posted by a parent on 1/2/2018Benson has been such a blessing! We love the family feel. Everyone is always willing to help. The teachers and staff genuinely care about ALL the children. So proud to be a Benson Bear!! Best principal and teachers EVER!
Posted by a student on 2/2/2016My boys are in their third year at Benson and we love it! The teachers have all been wonderful - caring and challenging. I appreciate the high standards at this small school.
