Attention:  The chorus event at Forest Park High School, scheduled for Friday, February 5th is cancelled due to the weather forecast.
Due to limitations in the way SchoolFusion processes the automated Recent Activity and Daily Digest email, homework, files, calendar events, etc. posted AFTER 1 p.m. will not be included in the Recent Activity and Event Digest email for the day. Therefore, if a teacher has told students that they have a homework assignment at the end of class but it isn’t posted until 3 p.m., then it will not show up in the email.

To avoid missing critical and updated information to teacher sites, parents and students are encouraged to login to the system at any time to access the “My Family” (for parents) and “My Classrooms” (for students) links for current information, as well as to sign up for a personalized RSS feed.

Daks Grill joins the Cougar Community!
Benton is proud to welcome Daks Grill in Dale City into the Cougar Community.  Daks Grill (located in front of Parkway Ford) is our newest Business Partner, and will be hosting a Spirit Night for Benton once a month.  The first one is coming up soon - February 9.  Daks will contribute 30% of the proceeds to Benton.  Visit Daks on the web.


The Faculty of Benton would like to thank the Benton Student Council and President McKenzie Blot, as well as the IHOP Restaurant on Hoadly Rd, for the hot breakfast provided to the staff on Monday, February 1.  Teachers were treated to pancakes, eggs, hash browns, bacon, sausage and ham to start their day.  What a treat!


Benton welcomes Officer Nicewonger (a.k.a Officer Nice) as the new School Resource Officer!  
Don't be suprised if you see him over at Hylton High School too.  He is also their part time wrestling coach!


Benton has installed 100 new student lockers!   
There are now sufficient lockers for the entire student body.   Since these new lockers have been assigned, there should be no locker sharing between students.   Any student having a locker problem should see Mr. Wernlein, Benton's Security Specialist.


Spirit Night at Moe's!

Benton is proud to continue its partnership with Moe's Southwest Grill.  Our first Moe's Night on 1/20 was tons of fun!  Thanks to all of the teachers, students, and parents who came out to support Benton. 

The next Spirit Night is Wednesday, February 17.  Moe's has generously agreed to donate a percentage of ALL proceeds from 5 pm - 8pm on each of the Spirit Nights.  So, pencil in February 17th on your calendar - and we'll see you at Moe's!
