We are no longer loaning out cold weather clothing items and accessories. This decision has been made due to how unmanageable it has become. We do our best to teach our students to be responsible and hope that parents can do the same when it comes to being prepared for each day's weather. If your child will be in need of cold weather clothing items or accessories for the upcoming fall/winter season, please see our clothing rack in the entry hallway. Thank you for your cooperation.

My name is Tim Lyons, the Transportation Director at Benton. I started as the mechanic 25 years ago and then moved into the role of Transportation Director. I am a Benton grad (once a Bobcat, always a Bobcat) and have one daughter that is a graduate of Benton and two grandchildren that go to Benton. In my spare time I like to be with my family, take day trips, and travel.

These drivers haul the most precious cargo "Benton Community students". So please beware of them traveling on our roads and especially when they are stopped and the lights are flashing. Parents remind your students to use their seat belts and bus tag when getting on and off the bus. #BeABobcat #APlaceToBelong
