How good is Bennion Junior High?
Bennion Junior High earns a 4 out of 10 GreatSchools rating, which places it below the Utah average on the measures GreatSchools weighs, chiefly test scores. Attendance runs around 76 percent of students present nearly every day, in line with the state. The school serves roughly 1,020 students at a student to teacher ratio near 24 to 1, typical for a Granite District junior high.
