Best Public Schools in Bennington, OK

Summary:

The city of Bennington, Oklahoma is home to two schools: Bennington Elementary School and Bennington High School. While both schools serve students from the Bennington district, the high school stands out as a top performer in the state.

Bennington High School has made significant strides in recent years, earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranking 30th out of 439 high schools in Oklahoma for the 2022-2023 school year. This is a dramatic improvement from its previous rankings, which were much lower in the 2020-2021 and 2021-2022 school years. The high school's success can be attributed to factors such as its high spending per student ($15,228) and consistent student-teacher ratio of 15:1.

In contrast, Bennington Elementary School has a 4-star rating and is ranked 116th out of 646 elementary schools in the state. While the elementary school has a similar student-teacher ratio to the high school, it spends significantly less per student ($8,664). Both schools have a high percentage of Native American students, as well as a large proportion of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a need for additional resources and support to address the unique challenges faced by these student populations.
