Benton High school was truly the best High school to go to where I'm from the atmosphere is amazing. Everybody knew everybody, all the teachers are supportive and want to know you as well as students and the administrators make sure we're as safe as we can be.

The best part about Benton High School is our academic I feel like our academic system is so superior. The worst part about Benton High School is that it does not have diversity you have barely any African-American students or teachers.

I do really like Benton in comparison to other schools although it could use some improvement I do still feel like they are doing an amazing job. The administration has gotten more people who actually care about the students over the years and as someone who loves math and science they offer many different courses in those subjects and it makes me happy I have so many options. They were running low on teachers so there were less extra curriculars for a while but they have been bringing them back and even making new options such as Family & Consumer science and Film as literature. I do really like Dr.Neil and Mrs.Clark as they seem to care more about the students and Dr.Neil is super funny. I have had personal experiences where i've had to go to them for help with a person and they handled it really well and were really calming when I was freaking out. Benton High does have some problem children and sometimes can be strict but other than that I believe it is a really good school.

The bathroom policy is simply absurd and shows no respect for students. The bathroom policy being that teachers must ask the administration if students may go to the bathroom. Many times the administration simply ignores the teachers request leaving students stuck in class while having to relieve th...

No interaction with parents about graduating seniors. No assistance with scholarship opportunities beyond students/parents having to visit websites.

Lots of bullying that teachers dont care about. There are a few nice teachers though.
