The Butler PTO is currently looking for a volunteer to co-chair the Spring Fair. If you are interested in getting involved in our most popular event of the year, please contact Tracey.

Butler PTO is offering a take home kit where children can build their own Butler Bear stuffed animal. These kits consist of a 16” unstuffed bear, bag of stuffing, wishing star, custom made Butler shirt, and instructions. All packed up in a “take me home” kit. Click here for the flyer.

The 2022 Edition of Butler’s Stuff-A-Mascot will include a different bear than last year along with a brand-new shirt design.

The price for each kit is $27.50. All orders must be placed on MyPaymentsPlus by February 5. Bears will be delivered to children the week of February 14.

If you have any questions, please contact Tracey.

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.
