Dedicated to Serving Community And People Benton’s National Honor Society is an ac- tive group of Benton students dedicated to serving the school, the community, and its people through service projects. One of those many service projects in- clude an annual Halloween party given for the children of the Noyes Home. During the party, NHS members conducted games and served refreshments for the children. A lot of times it is hard to tell who has the most fun, the kids or the NHS members. Another service project was Teacher Ap- preciation Day which was held on Feb. 14. Corsages and boutonnieres were made for every teacher and staff member. Refreshments were furnished in the teachers' lounge for the entire day and the committee also decorated the faculty lounge.

I Lori Barr practices singing tor an upcoming performance The Benton Singers of 1983-84 have had a busy year. They participated in the spring variety show and had shows of their own. There were 24 members, mostly seniors, in the group. Some of the ac- tivities planned were contest, which was held at Maryville and Columbia. Since the number of singers was limited, the group was divided into three groups of eight and chose classical music to pre- sent to the judges. Mr. Robbins commented, This year's group was one of my better groups; they have a mature sound.” The group plans to go to Smithville Lake when school is out for the yearly outing.
