Benson Polytechnic High School Reviews


Posted By: parent Quality Score: 2 2008-01-04 “Benson Polytechnic compliments a particular type of learner but falls short on meeting the needs of kids who would benefit from additional supports. The counseling staff appears to have minimal stategies for students who are struggling academically and/or having family challenges and offer little assistance to parents who are seeking advice regarding their child's options. .” Posted By: other Quality Score: 5 2007-11-26 “This is the one school that you will hear former students constantly tell you 'Benson changed my life'. I transfered into Benson in 2000, and it was the best decision I ever made. I came from the opposite environment before Benson, so being treated with respect and dignity by the staff was completely welcome. I commuted 45 minutes a day from Gresham, just to be at this school. KBPS program changed my life and helped me ultimately with my careeer. Great location, great metropolitan feel, great diversity, great environment that breeds greatness in students.” Posted By: student Quality Score: 5 2006-01-17 “This school has given me so many oppertunities to succeed in life, I have been in so many places were me just saying that i went to Benson Polytech, gave me privaleges that were not offered to others. This school is a great assett to the PPSD and I'm honored to call it my high school” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2005-08-09 “My daughter graduated Benson in 2000. Because of the dedication and motivation of the teachers, she has graduated from college and is now attending Graduate School to become a teacher. I commend the Benson teaching staff for discipline when necessary, for not to just passing students through the class, but making our children work hard to achieve their potential, and for simply caring. Thank you Benson teaching staff!” Posted By: student Quality Score: 5 2005-02-21 “Benson is probably the most diverse school in Portland. In general, students are dedicated to the school and well behaved. The health occupations and technical programs provide skills for quality jobs after high school. Students in the HOC program can find a job in a clinical setting by their junior year- providing valuable job experience. More than 80% of graduating students plan to further their education. Class sizes are relatively small (Ex. compared to Grant) and teachers are dedicated.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 4 2004-06-27 “Benson has given my daughter the education she needs to succeed in life. The teachers are excellent, the students hold a tight respect for each other. A highly recommended school if your child is looking for the best education possible.”
