My name is Cynda Mehlert and I am in my 13th year of teaching. I am a Special Education Teacher at Atkins Elementary but have taught in multiple buildings and grade levels throughout my 10 years here at Benton Community. My favorite part about being a Bobcat is that I am able to consistently teach in inclusive environments and classrooms that promote acceptance among all students.
Stella and Mrs. Nesbitt toured the elementary centers at different points this week. A few pictures from Stella's visit to Atkins Elementary are below. She is a celebrity wherever she goes!
Benton Community buildings are all focused on GRATITUDE as a word and skill area of study this month. Dr. Bieschke and Mrs. Selk traveled the district this morning to provide staff with a sweet treat and share words of appreciation and gratitude. We are so grateful to have such a dedicated group of individuals supporting students throughout the district in a variety of roles.

Benton Community is so fortunate to have so many wonderful, caring associates that support students and systems in a variety of ways.
"The best thing about being a BOBCAT is the atmosphere of the community is like that of a close family. We are supportive of one another and look after each other’s children as if they are our own. "

We had some special guests today from the Atkins Fire Department. Thank you for teaching our students about fire safety and showing them what equipment your trucks carry.
"I chose Benton because of our culture and beliefs we have in learning and educating our students. Benton is a place to belong and great learning opportunities happen here everyday. All staff are committed to the students they see and serve. As a parent of a child who also attends Benton, that is what I want for my own family, a school culture that truly puts students first."
