Why did I choose to teach at Benton? "Well, it really was an easy decision. My husband and I both graduated from Benton and when there was an opportunity to teach here it really seemed like coming home."
Happy Thanksgiving Day!

Why Benton? "I chose to teach at Benton because of the small town atmosphere, where students and parents are encouraged to be active and involved. On top of that, Benton has numerous options available for our students, whether it be sports, the fine arts or clubs. Many of our students are involved in multiple activities, sometimes several in one season. All of this really bolsters the sense of community."

Kelly answers the question, Why did you choose to teach at Benton?
"25 years ago Benton Community felt “right” to me. And it has been a great place to work and raise our kids."
Parents, great night to plan some holiday shopping or Christmas gift wrapping without the kiddos!
"My favorite thing about being a Bobcat is the sense of community. I love how the community supports all students involved in sports and the arts. A couple of my favorite times are when we all come together to celebrate homecoming and Veteran's day! Parents and staff help out with fundraising and events or rally around other Bobcat families during difficult times. I know that as a Bobcat, I have a community around me and my family that cares and supports each other!"
School will dismiss at 1:00 p.m. today, Monday, November 20.

The Benton Community Post-Secondary & Community Services Resource Fair was a great opportunity for students, families, and staff to engage with partners from the area about options and supports available to our students outside of our system. Many thanks for all who organized, attended, and shared resources!
Many thanks to ICAN for presenting to BC families regarding planning and paying for college. Also, thanks to Kirkwood for sponsoring ICAN services and the presentation in our district.
Darci shares, "The reason I chose Benton is because I grew up a Bobcat and got to see my children grow up Bobcats too."
