Butler recently hosted the PMEA District 5 District Band festival. Butler had 14 students participating in the festival. The students auditioned and five will be moving on to the Region Band festival hosted at Moon High School. Students who will be moving forward are Nate Gallagher, Cade Weaver, Juli Bish, Amaya Gayle, and Hunter Karenbauer.
Congratulations to all!
The prom is a special event for students where they make memories that last a lifetime. However, for some of our students, the cost of prom is simply too much.
The Butler Senior High School Random Acts of Kindness Club members would like to make sure their peers don't miss out on these memories simply because of the expense. Therefore, the club is planning to send two Butler seniors to the prom, all expenses paid. Last year we were able to help several students to prom through the generous donations of various local businesses.

Butler Middle School was recognized as a Title I Distinguished School. Each year the Division of Federal Programs honors the top performing Title I schools in Pennsylvania. Butler Middle School was one of 94 schools that were recognized out of more than 2,000 title I schools in Pennsylvania.
This award recognizes schools that were in the top 5% in achievement for the two most recent academic years or schools that were in the top 5% for growth in the two most recent academic years. In addition, this award recognizes schools that have made the greatest gains in achievement in the "all students group."

Senior Billie Winters designed a logo for the National Alliance on Mental Illness. Her work was selected out of approximately 75 designs as the National Alliance on Mental Illness logo for their upcoming annual walk and awareness event. She received a $25.00 Sheetz Gift Card, honorary admission to the walk as she will be recognized as the graphic designer, and a t-shirt.
Thank you Jennifer McConnell, NAMI Butler County, PA for presenting the award and allowing Butler Senior High School students participation in the contest. Congratulations Billie!
A group of students started a new club at Butler Middle School called Helping Hands. They complete community service projects and help spread kindness around the school.
For their most recent project, the students made Valentine's Day cards and Get Well Soon cards for Kyree at Pittsburgh Children's Hospital.
