Benton Middle School
Ensuring High Levels of Learning for All
Happy National Coach’s Day!
Today we’re celebrating the coaches who give their time, energy, knowledge, and heart to our BMS students. From early mornings and late practices to game days, competitions, meets, tournaments, and everything in between, our coaches do so much more than teach a sport or activity.
They push our students, encourage them, hold them accountable, celebrate their wins, and help them grow through the hard days too.
We’re incredibly grateful for every coach who represents BMS and pours into our Tigers. Thank you for all you do! 💜💛
Happy National Coach’s Day!

These Tigers earned Positive Office Referrals for the kind of things we LOVE to see at BMS: hard work, great attitudes, leadership, kindness, responsibility, and making their classrooms better just by being in them! 🐯
We love catching our students doing GOOD and making sure they know it doesn’t go unnoticed.
Way to represent BMS, Tigers!

Today we’re celebrating the people who work behind the scenes every single day to keep BMS clean, safe, and ready for our students and staff.
So much of what they do happens before we arrive, after we leave, and in all the little moments in between. We are incredibly grateful for their hard work, their willingness to help wherever needed, and the pride they take in caring for our school.
BMS is better because of you. Thank you for all you do! 🐯
