Today, we remember and honor the victims, first responders, and all those affected by the events of September 11, 2001. Benton Middle School took a moment of silence at each of the events that occurred that day to reflect and pay our respects to the fallen. #NeverForget #September11th #Honor911 #WeAreBenton

--LEARNING IN ACTION--

🚀 Our 6th grade science students at Benton Middle are hands-on with an exciting experiment — the Cartesian Diver! 🐠💧

Students are exploring how air and water pressure work together to make the diver sink and float. By squeezing the bottle, they get to see science in action and discover the power of buoyancy and pressure!

We love watching our students learn by experimenting and asking questions like real scientists! 🔬✹ #BMSScience #HandsOnLearning #CuriousMinds #WeAreBenton
