The Bennett Elementary PTA is so excited to bring a little magic to our school with our upcoming Book Fair in partnership with The Golden Notebook! 

Tuesday, April 14 – Friday, April 17

The Second Annual Bennett Elementary School Family Literacy Fair Night, held on March 26, was a wonderful success, with hallways bustling with families and friends. This year’s theme, "A Celebration of Reading and Art," set the tone for an evening filled with creativity and storytelling. Volunteers from the Olive Free Library, Phoenicia Library, and  Bennett PTA helped spread a love of reading by giving out free books and prizes. An impressive collection of student artwork was displayed throughout the school, thanks to the efforts of Art teacher Roberta Ziemba. 

The student art show that opened during Bennett Elementary School’s Literature Night Fair on March 26 was a huge hit among visitors. Many stopped to admire the beautiful work created by student artists in Kindergarten through Grade 5 and to learn more about the vision, skills, and reflection that went into each piece—perfect timing for March’s Art in Our Schools Month! 

The Onteora Central School District's 2026-2027 School Calendar was adopted by the Board of Education on March 17.

We are excited to continue our Fun Friday tradition throughout the month of April. These themed days are a great way to build school spirit, strengthen our community, and bring some extra fun to the end of each week.

We are excited to showcase the amazing talents of our Bennett Elementary students at this year’s annual Variety Show!
