Our meetings are typically held on the third Thursday of each month during the school year. Meetings are open to all to attend.

September 15th will mark the start of our 3rd annual Ready! Set! Go Tech! fundraiser - a competition between classes to see who can raise the most money for Benson's clubs, teams, and staff. Wil the Class of 1985 be able to put their mark on the trophy for a 3rd time or will a new champion rise?
Benson TechBoosters is an inclusive community of parents, alumni, and friends supporting Benson Polytechnic High School students, faculty, and staff, including a 501(c)(3) non-profit fundraising organization for Benson Tech Student organizations, Athletic teams, and staff appreciation.

According to the National Athletic Trainers Association, student athletes manifest stronger peer relationships, better attachment with adults, higher self-esteem, a closer sense of family, and participate more in volunteerism. They are less likely to engage in high-risk behavior. They have a greater sense of initiative, persistence and personal responsibility.

The Center for Disease Control conducts a survey every two years that studies risky behaviors of high school students has concluded that participation in high school sport reduces the risk of students using drugs, alcohol, or tobacco, and their likelihood of carrying a weapon. The survey also concluded that participation in high school sports significantly reduces the risk of suicidal behaviors.
