One of the most popular departments at Benton was the industrial arts department. It was this department that students learned to build a gun rack or a pexi-glass paper weight. Some students also placed in I.A. contests. Many of the talents taught in these classes are useful when the student has graduated. The industrial arts department has many classes to offer. Drafting 1 and II and Crafts are taught by Mr. Groh. There are three Woodworking classes. Beginning Woods, Woodwork I, and Advanced Woods. These classes are taught by Mr. Starks, the remaining classes are taught by Mr. Smith. He teaches Basic Electricity, Metals, General Shop, and Plastics. Mark Lee works on his Woodworking project. Mr. Groh knows how to take care of students who misbehave. 18 Industrial Arts
