"I chose to teach at Benton because it was a perfect fit. It is the perfect place to start a career, raise a family, and continue to learn. My favorite thing about being a Bobcat is the support one feels during times of celebration and during times of trial. Bobcats always have your back."
Update - Benton Community will be having a STUDENT VIRTUAL LEARNING DAY. We will not have school in person today. Additional information about the Student Virtual Learning Day will be sent to students and parents through email very soon.

day!”
