As we approach the end of the year, we are asking families to commit to their child’s Learning Pathway for the remainder of the 2020-2021 school year.
If you would like to change your child’s Learning Pathway between now and the end of the school year, please submit your child’s change request by Tuesday, May 4, 2021. This applies to all students in grades K-6.

The Butler Area School District is excited to announce the opening of Broad Street Elementary School for the 2021-2022 school year!

We are starting to fill the shelves of the library at Broad Street and would love for our community to help! Please consider donating new or very gently used books now through Monday, May 10, 2021.

As we enter the final nine weeks of the school year, I want to thank you for your flexibility and assistance in helping us to try and operate as normally as possible. We continue to need your help. Butler County’s covid numbers have increased to the substantial range for the last two weeks. My ask of you is if your child feels ill or has symptoms that could be COVID related, please keep him or her home until you consult with a medical professional.
Elementary School families are invited to attend a free virtual Code Night on April 26, 2021 at 6:00 pm. This is a free, fun and valuable experience for students in grades K-5 and their families. No sign up is required. No coding experience is needed. Just join the livestream and get ready to have some fun!
As we plan for the 2021-2022 school year, we want to ensure we are in the position to meet the individual needs of all of our students and families. This includes once again offering a traditional brick and mortar in person instruction learning pathway as well as the BASD Cyber Learning Program, which is fully online.
Mr. Dave Andrews, BASD Instructional Coach for Student Engagement, is passionate about creating unique learning opportunities for our students and making learning fun! As part of the Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS) program, students were rewarded for their positive behavior with a visit from Mr. Andrews and his lambs!
