My favorite thing about being a Bobcat is spending my days with the group of people that make up this school community. The staff, students, families, and the greater school community make Benton so special. I feel fortunate and proud to live and work in Bobcat Country. Benton Community truly is A Place To Belong.

My favorite thing about being a Bobcat is the strong sense of community and belonging. I’ve been a Bobcat since I was 6 years old, and over the years I’ve seen how much people care and get involved. It’s more than just being part of a school or a team—it truly feels like a family and a place where everyone belongs.
