Hello everyone! My name is Mrs. Benge. I am originally from Charlotte, North Carolina, but attended elementary school, middle and high school in Raleigh, NC. This will be my fifth year at Lugoff Elementary. For my first four years, I taught Kindergarten and I am so excited to move to first grade this year. I previously taught first grade while living in Charlotte! I am married to my husband, Matthew. Matthew is a teacher as well. He teaches 8th grade History. We have a 5 year old pup named Jett and a sweet baby girl, Pressley! I cannot wait to see what this year has in store for us.
