About Benson Unified School District
Benson’s campus path has three clear steps: Benson Primary, Benson Middle, and Benson High School. Students can remain under one district from preschool through graduation while still experiencing separate elementary, middle, and high-school settings.
The district’s parallel route begins in sixth grade. Benson Digital Learning Center Online serves grades 6–12 and is described as a distance-learning program with structure, accountability, and staff support. It replaces the student’s main daily setting and functions as more than one online class added to an ordinary campus schedule. At the middle-school boundary, students choose between the campus rhythm of Benson Middle and a full-time digital route that can continue through high school.
