Benbrook is officially home to a rising astrophysicist.
Jayden Blanchard, a proud Benbrook Middle-High School alum, has been selected as one of only six students admitted into The University of Texas at Austin’s PhD program for Astronomy—out of more than 300 applicants.
Blanchard has already received the Graduate Dean’s approval for admission, and pending final application steps with the Office of Graduate Admissions, he will officially begin his doctoral studies in Fall 2025.
Seeing a hometown talent reach for the stars—literally—is an inspiration for the entire Benbrook community. Jayden, we are incredibly proud of you and can’t wait to see your discoveries light up the scientific world!
