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.
Congratulations to our Preschool March Bobcat Award Winners!

My favorite thing about being a Bobcat is the strong sense of community. In a smaller, rural school, you really get to know every student and family, and it creates an environment where kids feel supported, seen, and cared for every single day.
Benton Community's Eli Patterson has been nominated for the KCRG Athlete of the Week. Please click the link to vote for him. Voting closes at 6:00pm tomorrow (Tuesday)! Voting is located in the right margin of the KCRG homepage. You might have to scroll a bit. Go Bobcats!

Why Benton?
I made the decision to teach at Benton because I immediately felt a connection to the people as well as the district's vision. Sometimes you just get this feeling or intuition that "this is where I'm supposed to be."
