Bentley Elementary School

PRINCIPAL – Regina Ingram

I am honored to step into the role of Principal after serving the Bentley community as Assistant Principal since 2021. With a career spanning every level of education, I began as a middle and elementary school teacher in Dallas, Texas, before transitioning to high school education as an Assistant Principal in Fort Bend ISD. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Communication from the University of Houston and a Master’s degree in Educational Leadership and Instructional Design from Walden University.

My journey to Lamar CISD began after witnessing the exceptional learning experiences my own children received within the district. My husband and I are proud parents to three wonderful children: Cameron (Foster c/o 2021), Jackson (Foster c/o 2025), and Leila, a current Gold Track student.

Serving the Bentley community has been a privilege, and I am continually inspired by the unwavering support of our students, staff, parents, and the broader community. Together, we make Bentley a place where high academic standards and engaging learning opportunities thrive—along with a bit of Blazer fun. As Principal, I am excited to continue working together to ensure our students achieve their fullest potential.

After all, we are Better Together at Bentley!
