We are very excited to share that Butler Area School District has been awarded a $1,382,353 grant through the Pennsylvania Department of Education! At the April 8th school board meeting, I shared with the BASD Board of School Directors that these funds are through the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (BSCA), which was signed into law on June 25, 2022. Through this legislation, Congress authorized $1 billion in funding to provide students with safer and healthier learning environments.  

The Golden Tornado Scholastic Foundation, Inc.'s 21st annual Fine Arts & Beyond (FAB) Showcase was a great success. The student artwork was incredible and the student musical performances were outstanding. Thank you to everyone who helped make the event a success!

The Butler County Early Care & Education Councils’ upcoming free event, entitled ‘Spring into School Readiness” will take place on Saturday, April 27, 2024 at the Clearview Mall. 

Representatives from Butler Area School District will be at the event, which also includes a great lineup of activities from 10:30 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. There will be live programs, community organizations with learning activities, free books, prizes, snacks and more.

McQuistion Elementary School was transformed into Seussville during this year’s annual Read-a-Thon. The Cat in Hat made a special adventure to invite students to tally up all their minutes of reading over a two week period wrapping up with Read Across America Week. 

McQuistion Elementary students celebrated World Down Syndrome Day by tie dying socks and wearing blue and yellow.

Butler Area School District, in collaboration with Butler Township, present Safety Town at the Butler Township Park Building to introduce the importance and methods of safety to children entering kindergarten in the fall.
