Dear Parents, We want to thank you for all of your help preparing your student for the ACT Aspire test we completed today. The students gave great effort and we are very proud of them. As you are aware the weather is getting warmer and clothing choices for students are changing as well. We would like to remind everyone of the current dress code policy set forth by the Benton School Board. * Dresses, skirts, shirts, and blouses cannot expose the midriff, back, chest, or cleavage. Low-cut shirts are not allowed. * All tops must be 3 fingers wide across the shoulder. * Shorts must have a 5-inch inseam. The entire dress code may be found on pages 23 and 24 in the 2021-2022 Benton Student Handbook.
