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.

Hemos Sido parte de Benfer durante 4 años consecutivos, y el ambiente ha sido muy bueno, no hemos tenido ningún percance, con ningún maestro ó staff de la escuela, mi estudiante se siente en comodidad y feliz de ser un Bob cat, lo único que me incomodó en una ocasión, fue un libro en la Biblioteca de la escuela, titulado: RED: A CRAYON'S STORY by Michael Hall. El libro trata de explicar la situación trans, y es un tema que corresponde a los padres explicar a sus hijos (esto sucedió cuando mi estudiante cursaba first grade) respeto el estilo de vida de los demás, pero cada padre conocé el carácter de sus hijos y sabe mejor cuando es adecuado presentarles este tema.

Benfer has been such a blessing to our family! The academics are amazing! I can't get over how much our daughter has learned over the past 2 years. Our daughter will be starting second grade next year and is so excited to return to Benfer.

I like the teachers how they work with kids and solve issues when they presented. Teachers well inform the students' parents when they are failing classes ( grades and issues). Also whenever the buses got delayed fir any reasons they inform the students' parents. The school always inform parents about the students progress and activities.

We've had 3 children come through Benfer. Our oldest was there for 6yrs & our other 2 are in 1st & 3rd grades. Our experiences with Benfer have been nothing less than wonderful. The motto among staff is "Every child is my child" & it shows. Our kids have varied from GT to non GT classes & we have be...
