I went to Bennington my freshman and sophomore year before deciding to homeschool instead. Overall, it was okay. It felt very small and there weren't a whole lot of opportunities or things to do compared to other public schools in Omaha. They have limited options for classes and one of my biggest problems was that I felt stifled there. Homeschooling allowed me to figure out what I actually wanted to do, whereas I would've never known I wanted to go into social work if I was still at Bennington.

Worst. Administration. Ever. If you can look past the horrible leadership, most of the teachers do a good job. The students are very nice, but not very welcoming at first. The female sports are secondary, especially to the administrators. If you are part of the "Good 'ol Boys," then you're set. And...

Moved to Bennington School District over 10 years ago because of the top-rated public school system ... and have never been disappointed. LOVE BPS!
