We want to remind our students and families of the importance of regular school attendance. When students miss school, they miss important instructional time that can’t be replaced. In fact, missing 10% or more of the school year (18+ days a year) can put students at risk of academic failure. Research shows they are less likely to read proficiently and graduate from high school. For our students to succeed, they need to be at school. Help your student get to school every day so that they can stay engaged, successful, and on track to graduate.
If you need support with your student’s attendance, please reach out to the school.
Congratulations to Emily Kaiser, your new School Board Vice President. Emily has served on the school board the past several years and now moves into the role of School Board Vice President.
Congratulations to Theresa Thompson, your new School Board President. Theresa has served many years on the school board and now moves into the role of School Board President.
Thank you to Roy Becker for serving as School Board President for the past 12 years. Your service and dedication to Benton Community School District is greatly appreciated!

"My favorite thing about being a Bobcat is that everyone is so welcoming of all people. I enjoy getting to start instilling that Bobcat pride into the youngest of the Bobcats and seeing them grow as teammates!"

"My favorite thing about being a Bobcat is the sense of community. I love how the community supports all students involved in sports and the arts. A couple of my favorite times are when we all come together to celebrate homecoming and Veteran's day! Parents and staff help out with fundraising and events or rally around other Bobcat families during difficult times. I know that as a Bobcat, I have a community around me and my family that cares and supports each other!"

Benton Community will be hosting a Post-Secondary & Community Services Resource Fair on November 15th from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM in the Student Center at the MS/HS. Although it will be held at the MS/HS building, this resource fair is open to ALL students and families, not just those at the secondary level.
What is your favorite thing about Benton? "I love the culture, traditions, and work ethic in this district! Everyone truly wants to do what is best for kids and takes pride in going above and beyond for the students and families we serve! Benton is a great place to be!"
