Welcome to Benzie Central High School
About Us
Principal's Welcome
I am Cheryl Smith, the new High School Principal. I am so happy to return to Benzie Central High as your Principal. Over the years, I have forged many relationships with colleagues, students, parents, and the community. I feel like I am coming HOME! I look forward to reconnecting with old friends, colleagues, and community partners. I am also excited to meet students and their families that I have had the pleasure of meeting yet. I have no doubt that this is going to be a great school year!
