GreatSchools Rating
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.

There is no show choir at Bondurant Farrar. Sports seem to run the school. Seems they hire young, Bondurant graduates rather than experienced teachers that didn't graduate from here. The town seems to support the school really well. Bluejay digital is really good.

Bondurant Farrar is a tremendous school district and community that I am blessed to say that I grew up in. There was never a day that I didn't feel safe or unwelcome. The teachers care about you, and your personal well being and want you to succeed. Bondurant has made me into the responsible, knowledgeable, and strong woman I am today, and I am grateful.
