BETTER IN BENTON. SUPPORTING EVERY STUDENT.

Every student deserves someone in their corner. Welcome to Benton Community Schools, where we support every aspect of our students’ journey.— academically, socially, and emotionally. There are no random acts of counseling here. Our comprehensive program provides consistent, personalized support to help students navigate challenges, plan for the future, and reach their best potential.

 

Our essential services are making a difference:

• Student Support: Our dedicated team of counselors help students succeed in and out of the classroom.
• Academic Guidance: Course planning, scheduling, assessments, and help navigating the path to graduation.
• Individualized Care: Interventions, 504 plans, and support personalized to individual student needs.
• A Helping Paw: Hank, our school support dog, lends comfort, connection, and extra encouragement when students need it most.
• Referendum dollars help make this support possible - providing the staffing and resources needed to serve our students
• throughout their educational journey.

 

We believe in creating an environment that allows student not only to succeed in the classroom, but ensures each individual feels supported, valued, and ready for what comes next.

That’s what it means to be “Better in Benton.”
