My favorite part about teaching at Benton is the way people become family. The staff, students, and parents all work together, much like a family, to make sure the children are excelling!
Why Benton?
One of the reasons I love working at Benton is the size of our district. We strike a nice balance between being large enough to offer a variety of support and opportunities for our students, but we’re small enough to build a tight network of relationships that give a strong foundation to our community. We create strong roots and facilitate an environment to flourish.
