It was very helpful and fun at the same time. Voice thought me what a true friends ship was and how to come out and talk to anyone and they also tight me how to never give up on life no matter how hard it gets or if things or friends dont want to be your friend. Never give up. They thought me the true meaning in connect, grow, thrive. Follow that model and if you go there give it a chance and never give up.

I stayed for 4 years and found myself I love it. The staff helped a lot and so much more. Thanks Mel H and Andrew B and Ezra C and Zac M. I will always miss you. Thanks for everything.

I went there back in the day I remember Jonathan Parker we actually room together shortly before I left because of going to the school to change my life I am now a security officerI’m still in contact with a lot of the staff from back then they had a really good support team

They fire single moms whom have to quarantine with their child because of covid.. told her to find someone else to quarantine with them!!Wouldnt trust my kids in their hands.

I went to that place it was okay but I always thought that place is supposed to help u. I tried to get help and I always thought it was helpful. I have known many staff members and kids there who had a hard time. I understand that we many all struggle but there is always a healing in life. If u need help I would convince u to talk to josh bull or Mell Hicky I have always known that they are always the one to help u in any situation. They always will have your back or solve a problem. They might tell u u are there for 30 days that isnt always true. I was there for a year and a half. I have never been restrained before and never have so my advice would be to think before u do something. Jack at school always gave out nicknames and I still have a nickname panini because my last name is Benini. I will never forget that name. My advice for u would be is to try to be good, strive , if u need help dont punch things because u might get restrained so talk it out with a staff member there always there to help. Grow. Be smart.

I did my growing up here. When nobody was there BSI had taken me in and helped me with my anger. I thank all of the OGs. Lenny and Mark for our hockey trips, Jeremiah and Colleen for my school days in the Annex dorm, Scott and Shelly for fighting my case through and through, Keith (R.I.P), weezy, and Hilder for being the dopest staff I ever ran into in any residential, not to discredit any others, just those three pulled me from some dark places. I now work with troubled you in a residential home and am glad to say that Bennington helped me find out a purpose in life. So many years spent and so many tears wept. This place has went from hell and back and I hope it continues doing its beautiful work.

Excellent School! Didnt think so at the time though, But looking back Bennington School will always be in my heart. Great memories!!

One of the best places Ive been to in my lifeThe opportunities and the help and the experience they gave me where life changing i got to go to places that i would of never had gone to if it wasnt for this school 17 years later i still remember staff name

Was hired to start today got a simple phone call by supervisor that I was no longer qualified. Worst management Ive ever dealt with, they lost a good worker. Will be filing a complaint with Vermont labor as discrimination.

Educational standards are very poor. School resources are not advertised accurately. Many parents and/or guardians are kept in the dark concerning events that happen at the school. Very few of the administrative staff are qualified for their jobs. Employees and students are treated with such appallingly low standards that it borders on abuse. This institution does not seek to enrich, better, educate, care for, or assist students - it seeks only to line its pockets.

I went there from 1991 to 1993. Had a little trouble adjusting, but started making friends right away. I learned alot by attending here. I have many many good memories of being there. The staff were very good and friendly. I lived at 3 of the campuses while I was there. Madison, Fairview(both) and Vail. I have nothing but good things to say about this place.

I went there when I was thirteen years old Im 25 now was there for three years so many memories Pete sereno was a amazing big brother in the program and sara couply was a amazing teacher when I got there I was a mess and didnt like it there at first and then I started making friends and having fun I can honestly look back now and say its the best school ever

I went there as a kid. Excellent place for troubled kids and just regular kids in general who hsd no school to take them....Many great memories there!

I went there back in 1994 through 1995 when I was 17. Miss some of the people from there.A lot of memories.
