What I love most about working at Benton is our students, staff and family atmosphere. To see growth of our young students from year to year is something special. Their daily smiles and knock knock jokes are an added bonus!
Attending school regularly is a challenge that makes you stronger.
What do you love most about working at Benton?
The way the community/district rallies together and cares. We are more than just a district, we are a "Family"!
Absences add up! Missing just 2 days of school a month means a child misses 10% of the school year.

Our centers welcomed students and families in for our open houses yesterday. There is so much excitement for the start of another year! Many thanks to all who helped to make the “Welcome Back” such a positive experience!
Associates from throughout the district gathered for some professional learning in preparation for another school year. This group of employees is such a valuable entity to supporting students throughout our system. Benton is so fortunate to have so many dedicated individuals serving students. If you’re interested in joining this group as an associate, please check out the employment posting on our website.
A big shout out to Jamie and Tyler for all their hard work getting our building ready for a new school year. Our building looks amazing - THANK YOU! We are excited to welcome back our students for another school year.

Benton CSD welcomed new staff to the district with a New Teacher Orientation on Thursday. Staff spent time in the morning learning about the district from our team at Central Office, toured to every single town in the district by bus with all teacher leaders, and received a building tour from each building administrator. We are so thankful to have so many new Bobcats ready to contribute to creating A Quality Education for a Lifetime of Learning.
A glasses donation is being held by the Van Horne Lions. If you have any unwanted glasses, please donate to help someone see better. Donations are being accepted in each building.
