The following items detail specific information for the return of student technology, social studies books, and library books.  Students will also be able to get personal belongings from lockers.  Any library books in classrooms or lockers will be returned to the library by teachers.  

As the 2019-2020 school year comes to a rather unconventional close, I wanted to thank you all once again for your patience and flexibility. 

The last few months have been challenging. The impact on our schools will be lasting in many ways.

The 2019-2020 school year is not yet over, but we are already starting to plan for next year. The COVID-19 school closures have dramatically changed the landscape of public education. As a result, we must reimagine who we are and how we serve students and families to provide the learning they need moving forward in our evolving society.

As we plan, our driving theme is to empower parents and students to make decisions that are the best for their individual situation. Parents and students will be able to select from three learning pathways beginning in the 2020-2021 school year.

Message from May 12

Our email host is experiencing issues that is preventing some of our emails from going through. As a result some emails sent externally from our faculty and staff members to parents may be getting delayed or may be getting bounced back as undeliverable. We do not believe we are having any issues receiving emails from others. This issue is only with outgoing messages. 

We realize this is incredibly frustrating, especially at a time when we reply so heavily on email. We will continue to work with our email host to resolve the issues as soon as possible. 

Thank you for your patience. 

Dear Butler Area School District Faculty,

Two months ago, you were all working hard to deliver high quality, innovative instruction in our classrooms. As I walked through the halls of our schools earlier this year, I was proud of the work I saw.

Then, our Governor closed our schools and we asked you all to figure out a way to deliver instruction remotely so that our students could continue to learn at home. Once again, you rose to the challenge.

The past few weeks have been very difficult. Yet, you continue to show up each and every day to be a consistent source of encouragement and support in the lives of our students.

Teacher appreciation week is May 4-8 and we would like to make sure our teachers know how much they are appreciated. If you would like to share a message of appreciation for our Butler Area School District teachers, please submit it using the link below by the end of the day on Monday, May 4, 2020. We will then put these messages together for our teachers and community to see.
