Announcements

  • The speech team concluded a very successful day on Saturday at our national qualifying tournament. We had three duo teams break through to finals: Liam Doan/Addison Yates, Sarah Junker/Katherine Sukraw/, and Jack Holtorf/Prise Yates. Sarah and Katherine placed seventh. Liam and Addi placed sixth. However......
  • The big news is that Prise and Jack placed FIRST overall, winning the north division for Nebraska. They have qualified for the national tournament in Richmond, Virginia in June. This is a giant deal for Bennington, as they become the second team/group to do this for Bennington ever, joining Addison Thornburg and Alexa Hall two years ago. If you see any of these individuals, please send them a giant congratulations. They absolutely deserve it. 


  • State Basketball tickets can be purchased at the link below for the boys game on Thursday.


FBLA will be meeting this Thursday, March 12 at 7:30 am in the Library. We do have a guest speaker coming so we hope to see you there!
