2025 Elementary Open House
This is Terri Romo, Interim Superintendent of Sierra Vista Unified School District. Iโ€™m coming to speak with you about a very important topic & we need our community's help.

As you have heard, we have an employee who has been arrested. Last night, I was contacted by the Sheriffโ€™s Office and informed that they will be releasing an official statement encouraging families to share any information they may have regarding Mr. Benjamin. We stand united with the Sheriffโ€™s Office in urging our community members to come forward with any and all information related to this matter or to any allegation of child abuse.

As shared by the Sheriffโ€™s Office-
Due to the circumstances in this case, the Cochise County Sheriffโ€™s Office is asking anyone who may have come into contact with Mr. Benjamin and experienced any suspicious/criminal activity to contact the Sheriffโ€™s office immediately via SEACOM at 520-803-3550.

Even with all of the safety protocols school districts like SVUSD must follow when hiring staff-like fingerprint clearance cards, reference checks, etcโ€ฆ.It takes an entire community to keep our students safe. We know it may not be easy, but we encourage anyone within this community to come forward and contact law enforcement whenever you suspect a child is in danger.

Iโ€™m a mom, this is my community, and Iโ€™ve dedicated my life to caring for children as an educator.

Once againโ€ฆPlease contact the Sheriffโ€™s office immediately via SEACOM at 520-803-3550 or our local police department with any information related to this or any allegations of misconduct with a child.

We must stand together to protect our children. Please join me in this fight.
