The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. 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.

At Benton Consolidated High School, we are offered multiple duel credit classes, which are college classes taught by high school teachers. If one takes the classes in high school, then it's easier for them once they get to college. Benton Consolidated High School tries to keep their students safe with a cop there every day, and their students get to safely get a good education.

I had a lot of good experiences at Benton. They have many opportunities for their students to be in clubs, sports, or really anything. Everyone has an equal opportunity to be involved if they put forth the effort. I was in Speech, National Art Honors Society, and performed in plays/musicals. They also have wonderful staff that genuinely care about their students. I believe that several teachers would do anything to help their students.

I am currently a student here and I feel safe there and I feel like a can trust the teachers here and this is my last year here and we have had good times and bad times too but we always manage to get back on our feet and we also have fun times
Overall a great high school with dedicated teachers and plenty of courses and extra-curricular activities. Sports often takes more precedence over the fine arts at this school. Nevertheless, the fine arts offered are still valued by the faculty and staff.
