"I chose Benton or rather Benton chose me 21 years ago. I have the pleasure of working with students and staff in our Norway Center as I have just completed my 5th year as the building administrator. Benton is a special place that I am proud to call home and excited for all the possibilities our own 4 children get to experience during their time here."
Come cheer on the Benton Bobcat Softball team tonight as they take on the Williamsburg Raiders! These two undefeated, top 5 ranked teams begin play at 5:30 at Zittergruen Field. If you're unable to join in person, tune into KCRG 9.2. Jeff Linder from the Cedar Rapids Gazette will also be covering this big game on the diamond. Go Bobcats!

Derrick, a 6th grader at Norway Intermediate, participated in multiple events this past weekend at Summer Games held by the Special Olympics of Iowa. Congratulations to Derrick!
5th graders got the opportunity to enjoy Rodgers Park last week. They had beautiful weather for a day of learning outside. The partnership between Benton Community and the Benton County Conversation Team is one we treasure!
"Choosing Benton wasn't just about finding a job—it was about finding a home where I knew my family would be looked out for. I feel so grateful to be a part of a community that prioritizes not just professional growth, but the well-being of those closest to me."
Benton Community wants to thank Patrick Schulte for his years of service and wish him many years of enjoyment in retirement.

"Choosing to work at Benton Community was an easy decision. It was an extremely short commute, the hours were great, and my children would attend there. I stayed because of the community that is so engaged, concerned and entwined with each other they become like family."
School will dismiss at 1:00 p.m. today, Wednesday, May 15.
