The Foundation plays a crucial role in advancing the education and careers of Benson High School staff. Recently, the Foundation awarded a full scholarship to Jayden Swensen, a Benson security guard, coach, and alum, enabling him to attend UNO to complete his degree and obtain a teaching certificate.

Benson Baseball Coach Thom Sibbitt praised this achievement, calling it the best story of 2024. He is confident that Jayden will become an outstanding teacher and a tremendous asset to Benson. Many others have shared how much Jayden positively impacted them during their time at Benson, highlighting his popularity and dedication as a coach and guard.
