Benton recommends that students keep money in pockets, ziploc bags, or a coin purse with their name. We do not recommend leaving money in a back pack in the hallway. Prepaid lunch tickets are highly recommended and may be purchased through the Columbia Public Schools Food Service Office at 1818 W. Worley. Charges are limited to three days. Charge notices will be sent home.
Children are responsible for their own money.
All charges are handled through the Columbia Public School Food Service Office at 1818 West Worley. You may contact the food service office by telephoning 886-2110. Back to top of page Bicycles Benton discourages the practice of riding bicycles to school for safety reasons. Another concern is that of theft and vandalism as we have no way of preventing this. In case of snow, please listen to local radio and television stations.
