Benton School Board to Reveal Name for Newest Elementary School; Meeting Mar 13th

by

There is a new elementary school in the Benton Public Schools family. So new that it doesn’t have a name. But that will be taken care of soon. The public submitted names, the school narrowed it down, and the students voted from the top choices. Now at Monday night’s meeting, we’ll get to hear the results.

The Benton School Board will hold their regular meeting on Monday, March 13th, 2023 at 5:30 p.m. The location will be in the Professional Development Center at 211 N. Border Street. The School Board will have a workshop after this meeting, at 6:30 p.m. in the same room.

The meeting agenda outline is below. Find the full agenda with accompanying documents at THIS LINK.
