The Benson Careers 2000 effort has been a total staff commitment to teach courses in a more relevant manner and to help students understand the career demands of the next century. In addition, all staff members serve as student advisers to help every student become a successful contributor to the school. Many teachers have been recognized locally and nationally for outstanding classroom instruction and dedication to their students.
