Congratulations to the Senior High School students who were selected to represent Butler at PMEA District 2,3,5 Orchestra!

With covid cases on the rise in Butler County, I’d like to take a minute to remind you to please keep your child home from school if he or she is sick. I know it can be a hardship for families and also difficult for students who want to be in school, but if your child is experiencing covid symptoms – or any other illness – please refrain from sending them to school.

The Senior High School raised more than $1,300 for Caring Angels just before winter break!

The Senior High Student Council organized a corn hole tournament where all of the entry fees were donated to Caring Angels. Sixty-six teams participated in a round robin stage before the team with the best record from each round robin group moved on to the championship bracket. 

Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday break. As I reflect on last school year and this fall, I can’t express how thankful and grateful I am that our students are back in school. Not merely for being allowed back in school, but also for the extraordinary work of students, teachers, parents and a large cast of other employees and community members who have made it possible to return and stay open.

The Senior High School Spanish Club sponsored a Deck the Halls Holiday Decorating Contest.  All 5th period classes were invited to decorate their showcase window, bulletin board, classroom door, ceiling, and walls around their rooms to express their holiday spirit.  Each room could choose a theme or simply decorate and everyone supplied their own decorations.

Senior High School student Nathaniel Grossman placed second chair in the euphonium section at the PMEA Honors Band concert. The concert took place at Westminster College on Saturday, December 18th. The PMEA Honors Band is an auditioned ensemble that prepares and plays college level music. Congratulations, Nathaniel! 

Butler Senior High School gifted students are working in the school's makerspace to create holiday ornaments.  The students are learning skills such as soldering, circuitry, and problem-solving to create these holiday-themed kits. 

Eleven Butler seniors recently signed their National Letters of Intent. Congratulations to all of these outstanding student athletes! View photos. 

Gifted students from the Intermediate High School and Senior High School went to Slippery Rock University in December to compete in the LinguiSHTIK competition. 

LinguiSHTIK requires students to create sentences using the rules of grammar that meet the specific demands of the game.

Dear BASD Families, 

The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania ruled that the Pennsylvania Acting Secretary of Health’s masking mandate for schools is void and unenforceable.  

Therefore, the district will revert back to its school board approved Health and Safety Plan. That plan stipulates that wearing a mask is recommended, but not required for students in school.
