Just one more week to donate Peanut Butter for the Arkansas Foodbank. Help us hit our goal of 1000 jars!
Thanks to a USDA waiver, Benton Schools is proud to announce FREE meals for all students. Starting Tuesday, September 7, all Benton students can receive a breakfast and a lunch every day, at no cost. Virtual students may also receive this same benefit by signing up for meal pick up.
This waiver is effective thru December 31, 2020. It is still very important to complete a free/reduced application.
