It's back to school time at Butler R-V

Back to School Information for Butler R-5 School-mark your calendar!

From Superintendent Alan Stauffacher:
The 2012-2013 school year will hold many positive changes for students and the community. We hope to begin a new initiative of creating community/school partnerships. We will be encouraging any school sponsored group to find positive ways to give back to the community. This will be our way of saying thank you to the citizens and how can we serve you.

We are continuing our efforts to becoming a more kid friendly district that is focused on what we can do to make students more successful. We have implemented several programs that will help students progress with their peers, and build upon student success. We will have in the high school: after school tutoring, credit recovery, and a revamped BEAR Time to meet the needs of all of our students. We have arranged for our staff to be trained in bullying prevention, and will be actively working to improve the education and behavior of students.

At the elementary, we will continue to implement the Comprehensive Literacy Model, which focuses on interventions that aid students on an individual basis, and creating interventions based upon student needs. These programs will help students gain the content knowledge that will enable them to succeed at the next grade level. We continue to strive to make the educational program more responsive to meet the needs of the individual child.

For The Kids,
Alan Stauffacher
