Why Benton?
I chose Benton because it is my home district. I grew up here, and I have always wanted to be a part of the Benton family. My mother taught here, my wife teaches here, and my children went here.

2nd graders at Atkins Elementary got the chance to learn about song creation with Mrs. Smith! They learned about the base beat, types of instruments, and patterns to develop a song. Then they got the opportunity to put their creativity to work and develop their own music.
