School safety is good, teachers are average, but a third of them are not good teachers. Administration is horrible. School food is ok, but I would bring a lunch.

The Principal at Benton Junior High has zero concept in the area of supervision. She does not support the teachers, is utterly hateful and is a bully. I do not see how she keeps her job. She is a liability waiting to happen.
