💜💛 Congratulations to Our Outstanding Support Staff of the Year, Melissa Campbell! 🐯🏆

Benton Intermediate is proud to recognize Melissa Campbell as our Outstanding Support Staff of the Year!

Long before our students walked through the doors for the first day of school, Mrs. Melissa was already hard at work. Throughout the summer, she put in countless hours helping prepare BIS for a brand-new school year, making sure our building was clean, welcoming, and ready for our Tigers and staff to return.

Her hard work doesn’t stop when the school year begins. Melissa is dependable, hardworking, and always willing to do whatever is needed to help our school run smoothly. So much of what she does happens behind the scenes, but the difference she makes can be seen throughout BIS every single day.

We are incredibly thankful for Melissa and all she does for our students, staff, and school. Please help us congratulate Melissa Campbell, our Outstanding Support Staff of the Year! 🎉💜💛
