We are excited to kick off the 2026–2027 school year with a fun evening for our students, families, and community! Join us on Wednesday, August 19th for our Open House and Back-to-School Carnival!

Open House
4:30–6:30 p.m.

Come visit the school, meet your child's teacher, see the classroom, and get ready for a great new school year!

New in the Middle/Senior High School this year, the Student Assistance Program team is excited to host Benton’s first annual Back-to-School Activities Fair! As you explore the school and follow your student’s schedule, be sure to stop by the cafeteria to discover the many opportunities available for students to get involved. Meet current student members, learn more about the clubs and activities offered at Benton, and help your student find something that sparks their interest. We encourage every student to get connected and get involved!

Back-to-School Carnival

The carnival will feature something for everyone, including:
• Food trucks including: ShoovyQ BBQ, R Food Truck, Bellum's Bubble Waffles, Boppalouies, and more!
• Lawn games
• Pick-a-Duck
• Ring Toss
• Basket Raffle featuring 13 different baskets
• A visit from the Benton Volunteer Fire Department, Benton Police Department and the Pennsylvania Game Commission

Bring the whole family, enjoy some great food, play some games, and help us celebrate the start of another exciting school year! We can't wait to see everyone on Wednesday, August 19th!

We would also like to remind everyone that breakfast and lunch are once again free this year.

Parents are reminded to sign into their Synergy Parentvue portal to review their child’s registration information and to be sure to look for bussing information so they are ready for pickup on our first day of school, Tuesday, August 25, 2027.
