"I chose Benton because it is a great place to live and raise a family. I grew up in the district and am thankful for all the experiences and opportunities our district provides. It is a great place to be."


"As a newcomer this year, I chose Benton because I was excited to officially become a part of this wonderful community. While living in the community for the last several years, I have seen and felt how amazing, caring and welcoming the people are. I feel so fortunate to be able to spend my days in the same community where my kids are growing up as Bobcats!"

"My favorite thing about being a Bobcat is the pride that students, staff, families, and community members have in being a Bobcat. The events at Benton, especially Homecoming and Veteran’s Day, where the district all comes together are some of my favorites. I am so glad we chose Benton for our family!"
