We had some Norway Intermediate students participate in the YMCA Youth and Government Conference. Through hands-on learning and collaboration, they had the opportunity to:
🇺🇸 Understand the democratic process
🏛️ Analyze democratic principles within state government
📜 Create and debate laws through the democratic process
Experiences like these help students build leadership, communication, and civic engagement skills while gaining a deeper understanding of how government works. We are proud of the way our students and Mrs. Speer represented Benton Community.

I value being part of a team that is committed to supporting not just academic growth, but also students’ social and emotional development. Staff genuinely care about one another and work together to problem-solve and support students in creative, effective ways.
