Why Benton?
I chose to teach at Benton because this is the community that is serving my kids and family. I knew from the moment we moved to this area that this was a special place to be and I am so thankful to get to contribute to all the great things happening here.

My favorite thing about being a Bobcat is the opportunity to get to know so many students. This is my sixth year at Benton and it is fun to teach siblings of my previous students and eventually every kid in a family.
