Benton Community and Central Lutheran will be on a 2 hour late start today, Wednesday, December 7th. No early dismissal today.

I am currently in my 27th year of teaching at Benton Community. I began teaching at the Norway building in 1995 and then moved over to the Atkins building to teach kindergarten when sections were relocated. Now that our three children are all grown, my husband and I enjoy going to Iowa basketball games and spending time with our Bernese mountain dog, Tanner.

This is my 16th year teaching at Benton Community School District. I taught Kindergarten my first two years and have spent the last 14 years as a first grade teacher. I enjoy gardening, kayaking, camping, and being outdoors. I live in Cedar Rapids with my husband Wes, and sons Henry (5) and Levi (1). My son Henry and I love being a Benton Bobcat!
