On behalf of the Benton County Board of Education, our employees, students, and community, I welcome you to the Benton County Schools website—home to a tradition of academic excellence and strong community support.

Benton County Schools’ goal is to prepare students to be successful, lifelong learners who possess integrity and an understanding of service, while involving all stakeholders in the process. Serving over 2,000 students across six schools—including Camden Central High School, Camden Junior High, Big Sandy School, Camden Elementary, Briarwood Elementary, and Holladay Elementary—we offer a comprehensive PreK-12 education. Our dedicated teachers and staff work closely with families and the broader community to provide innovative programs in academics, career and technical education, athletics, and the arts. We are proud of our safe, positive, and nurturing environment where every student is encouraged to reach their full potential.

This website contains a variety of district and school-level information, including calendars, policies, resources for parents and students, and highlights of our achievements. We invite you to explore these resources and contact us if you have questions or need assistance.

Thank you for the opportunity to educate your child!
