Hello! I am Ethan Kaiser and I currently teach 5th Grade in Norway. This is my first year teaching. I attended William Penn University where I competed on the Men's Golf Team. I am also going to be helping coach the Benton Boys Golf Team this season!

Mr. Platt teaches 4th through 8th grade art at Benton Community. He hails from the tri-town area of Newhall, Atkins and Norway. Mr. Platt enjoys reading and fishing when he is not creating artwork with the students.

My name is Abby Swiatly and I teach 4th grade at Norway Intermediate. This is my second year teaching, but my first year at Benton. I previously taught 1st grade at South Tama Elementary. So far I am loving working at Benton and I can't wait to see what this year brings!
