We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Bennington High School is a small-town school where everyone feels like they're your family. The school itself could use some updating but overall isn't the worst. Few teachers are there solely for the paycheck and not to actually teach. Most teachers care about you as an individual and your success.

The size of school is great, makes it easier for teachers to give one-on-one time to the students. The teachers and staff create a very positive environment for the students. On downfall is, for some reason, sports are seen as more important than academics and the fine arts. Which just isn't too cool.

I believe there should be some changes made as far as the board and superintendent are concer...
