I am Shawn Pfiffner and I am beginning my 34th year in education and my 33rd year at Benton Community. I am a proud Benton Alum. I had amazing teachers and coaches as a Bobcat and try everyday to live up to that same Bobcat culture. I do everything I can to support all of our kids, coaches, sponsors, and directors. Benton Community is my second family and a great place to belong. Go Bobcats!!:)
