Parents/Guardians:
This will be my last newsletter for about a month or so as we transition into the summer. I have enjoyed my first year at the helm of Benson Tech and look forward to taking some time off to be with my family and regenerate for the 2014-15 school year. If there are important events that arise during the summer I’ll be sure to send out a message to all the Benson Parents/Guardians that are on my list serve to make sure that you are up to date with major events that may be occurring during the summer regarding Benson Tech. I can tell you that we will be having a Benson Alumni Picnic on August 16th here at Benson out on the front lawn from 12pm to 4pm. Please be sure to save this date as more information will be coming regarding this event later in the summer.

Benson Booster’s Club Being Formed:
Parents of Benson athletes and other Benson supporters: your help is really needed. A few volunteers are meeting in June and through the summer to form a new Benson Boosters Club to encourage and support each and every athletic team at Benson. The Club’s activities will start in earnest this fall. This summer we are looking to parents and others to help organize the Club, recruit other members and to plan future fund raising efforts. Interested? Willing? Contact Dale Bajema [email protected] . In addition to strengthening Benson’s teams in the coming year the Club will help assure the future of Benson’s athletic program.
Athletics:
Benson will be having a new Athletic Director. Sanjay Bedi from Parkrose will be Benson’s new AD as Ms. Draper is heading to back into the classroom for the 2014-15 school year. Please give a warm welcome to Mr. Bedi when you see him in the school this upcoming school year.
Parents if haven’t had a chance to see the Senior End of the Year Video that was done by our own Digital Media Production Class I would encourage you to go to Benson’s website at www.bensonhs.net and click on the scroll for the End of The Year Video. The kids did a fantastic job on the video and it really showcases the Tech Pride as demonstrated by our students and staff.
Congratulations to the students who will make up the Benson Polytechnic Student Government for the 2014-15 School Year.
