Open Quote I love this school for my son. The staff and teachers are always so helpful. They keep us parents updated on everything going on! Close Quote

Open Quote If you have a choice or are able, please do not send your child to Bendorf, use zone variance if possible. The administration at Bendorf will lie, if you disagree with them. The Principal will not help on anything. My children attend there and I am doing everything in my power to have them removed from this school. My children have attended other elementary schools without a problem until we arrived here, after 16 years of Clark county schools, I could honestly say I would never recommend anyone to enroll their children here. The teachers were fantastic, they need to replace the administration. Close Quote
