The Benson Master Planning Committee (MPC)
The Benson Master Planning Committee (MPC) was a group of school and community stakeholder representatives who worked together to help provide feedback for the Benson Tech master plan. View the Benson Master Planning Committee Roster
MPC members also synthesized community-wide input and shared the evolving details of the project to others in the community. While MPC members did not make decisions, their input was crucial in creating a design that the entire Benson community can be proud of. Read the Benson MPC charter here.
