For the second year, the Arkansas School Boards Association held a personal essay/speaking contest where 11th and 12th grade students have an opportunity to present before an audience of more than 600 school board members and administrators during the ASBA Annual Conference. For the second year, a Benton High School Student has been awarded this opportunity. This year Benton High School Senior Ryan Taneja placed 3rd in the statewide competition. Not only did Ryan participate and speak in front of the conference attendees, he was also awarded a monetary award of $500.

Congratulations to the BHS Football team! The 2019 BHS Football team won the 6A West conference championship and the 6A State Runner-up. With a 0-3 record coming out of the nonconference schedule, this team rallied to finish undefeated in the 6A West conference before advancing to the 6A State Championship game. The BHS Football program is a great source of pride for our community.
