Our Bears art work was the best in show! Tonight's MISD district art show was a huge success! Thank you Ms. Daubenspeck for pouring into our blooming artists!


It was a special day in the #bblc! The Bennett preschool came to visit. They've been learning about community members and came to meet their librarian! After a tour they were treated to a special story time.


Kindergarten has been making their way through the everybody section. Every week we highlight a new section for students to self select. They are doing such a great job with choosing just right books and using self markers. #bblc #bearshine


Congratulations to Ms. Daubenspeck! She was voted by her colleagues as the Bennett Teacher of the Year for 2024-25!
Ms. Daubenspeck is our Art teacher and Specials Team Leader. She has been at Bennett since 2019, when she began her career. Her colleagues shared through their nominations that she is creative, patient, and always makes sure our students have a creative outlet.
