Dr. Pamela Ewell is the Superintendent of Benton Community School District. This is her 4th year at Benton and 14th year as a school superintendent. She is honored and excited to be at Benton!
Dr. Ewell earned her Ph.D. from Iowa State University in 2004. A fun fact….2 of her children were also at ISU at the same time she was working on her degree!
In her spare time, Dr. Ewell loves the outdoors – boating, fishing, gardening, and doing things with her family and 4 grandchildren.
