December 2 | 7pm | Butler Library

Please join us on December 2 at 7pm in the school library for the Spring Fair planning meeting. This is the biggest event for the school and volunteers are needed. This is for the kids and we can’t do it alone, so this is your opportunity to get involved. Come meet new people, no experience needed.

Questions? Email Veronica or Tracey.

Now Though December 3

You pick a gift card amount and pay the Butler PTO. The amount you pay is the gift card value you will receive. Giant will then give 5% back to our school.

December 9

It's that time of year to be thankful and give back. We can express our appreciation to our teachers and staff by providing food for them during conferences on Thursday, December 9. Please sign up here for an item to make or purchase. Reach out to Jennifer or Bridget with any questions.

A friendly reminder - in order to volunteer in the classroom, you must have current volunteer clearances through CBSD. The process is EASY and all done online using the Volunteer Tracker App to track volunteer clearances. Every CB volunteer will need to register, and upload their clearances.

Pennsylvania law requires all persons having direct contact with school children obtain background checks and clearances. Click here for the required clearances, along with links to the state’s websites, which may be found on the CBSD website.

**Please note: Butler will follow the Health and Safety plan of the District. At this time, volunteers are limited for specific activities. All volunteer opportunities are subject to change based on District guidelines. You MUST have current clearances in order to volunteer. Click here for volunteer clearance information.

Butler Bear Clubs is a winter enrichment program created to provide fun opportunities during the winter months. Classes are six weeks in February and March. Please email us at ButlerBearClubs@gmail.com with any questions or if you are interested in helping plan/organize clubs. We'll also have some paid positions for classroom assistants and hall monitors (details to follow).

General Butler Bear Clubs info can be found on the PTO webpage here and will be updated with 2021-22 school year info as available.

**Please note: All volunteer opportunities are subject to change based on District guidelines. We ask that you please refrain from cell phone usage during your volunteer shift. Unfortunately, younger siblings are no longer permitted to accompany volunteers. You must have your volunteer clearances completed prior to signing up for lunch duty.
