Bentley, Julianna

Meet Mrs. Bentley

Hello! My name is Mrs. Bentley, and I am so excited to be a fifth grade teacher at Jackson Elementary!

I earned my bachelor’s degree from Purdue University and am currently continuing my education through Mercer University as I work toward my master’s degree. I believe that every child is capable of learning, growing, and accomplishing amazing things when they feel supported, challenged, and encouraged.

In our classroom, you’ll find a love for exploration, creativity, teamwork, and kindness. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming environment where students feel confident taking risks, asking questions, and celebrating both their successes and their growth along the way.

When I’m not in the classroom, I enjoy spending time with my family, exploring new places, reading a good book, and finding inspiration in nature. I'm also an avid football fan so weekends after August are reserved for the boys of Fall!

I am truly honored to be part of the Panda Pride family and I look forward to a fantastic year of learning and adventure!
