Summary:
The city of Bennet, Nebraska is home to a single standout elementary school, Elementary At Bennet, which serves grades PK-5 and is part of the Palmyra District O R 1. This high-performing school has consistently ranked in the top 35% of Nebraska elementary schools over the past three years, with strong academic results that exceed state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science.
Elementary At Bennet serves a predominantly white (94%) and relatively affluent student population, as evidenced by its low free and reduced-price lunch rate of 20.25%. The school's investment in resources is evident in its higher-than-average per-student spending of $13,613 and low student-to-teacher ratio of 14.4, which likely contribute to the school's academic excellence. Particularly noteworthy is the school's 5th-grade Science proficiency rate of 94%, which is significantly higher than the state average of 76%.
While the data suggests Elementary At Bennet is a standout institution in the Bennet area, the school's racial homogeneity may indicate a need to explore strategies to better serve a more diverse student population. Nevertheless, the school's consistent high performance, strong resource allocation, and affluent student demographics make it an attractive option for families in the Bennet community.
