Benton Grade School is a K-6 building of 278 students.  All day kindergarten provides the foundation for academic success. Benton has two sections of each grade level. A School-wide Title One Program provides assistance to all students. Additional reading support is provided by a certified teacher.

Located in South Central Kansas, Benton Grade School is one of four elementary schools in the Circle School District, USD 375. Our staff consists of twenty-two full-time certified staff. The Benton Grade School faculty is a highly cohesive group, due in part to low staff turnover.  This level of stability has led to an environment of consistency for our students. At the same time, new and innovative ideas are constantly shared among the faculty, gleaned from new teachers, classes and in-services opportunities. Teamwork is valued as our number one approach to a positive school environment.
