My favorite thing about being a Bobcat is being a member of a welcoming, caring, and inclusive community. I am not originally from the area, and when I was hired I was welcomed with smiling faces and open arms. I am so glad I became a Bobcat and will get to grow my family in this district.

The winter activities season is warming up!! Let's go Bobcats!

My favorite thing about being a Benton Community Bobcat is the strong sense of pride and tradition that runs through our school and community. My family has had multiple generations of Benton graduates, and it means a great deal to continue that legacy, celebrating our shared experiences, school spirit, and the values that make being a Bobcat something truly special.

Why Benton?
As a Benton graduate, along with my husband, coming back to teach was a decision about sticking to our roots and returning to a great place we knew was supportive and enriching while allowing us to be close to our family.

My favorite thing about being a Benton Bobcat is the family atmosphere felt throughout the district.

Thank you, Alexander Mezzetti, for speaking with Senior English students about social work, working internationally, and the importance of learning languages. Alexander has been volunteering with SOME (So Others May Eat) and the Peace Corps. for the last four years. Students were intrigued by his career perspective and the fact that he can speak six languages!
