Good luck to Hannah Strizek and Faye Belew at District Speech today. The girls will compete at Falls City Sacred Heart.

East Butler Public School will be closed tomorrow, Thursday, March 20th. At this time, we are not sure when power will be restored to our buildings and communities. Road crews have now just begun the long clean out process. Please have patience during this time.

Due to the incoming weather and the Blizzard warning that we will be in tomorrow, East Butler Public Schools will be closed tomorrow, March 19th, 2025. Please stay home and stay safe.


👰 🤵♂️ East Butler kindergarteners celebrated the wedding of Q and U today. Now they will remember that whenever a word starts with Q, U will follow. 🤵♂️👰♀️










Dwight PreK had so much fun reenacting 5 little speckled frogs for small group. Frogs may be our favorite of all the life cycles we learned about this week.


🐝Dwight PreK has some busy bees.🐝
🌻We got pollen (Cheeto dust) on our fingers and then spread it to our flowers while we drank the nectar (juice).




It was Engineering Challenge Day in Calculus! Teams were tasked with building the two ends of a bridge separately and had to bring them together at the the last minute to support a weight suspended above the ground. Communication between the teams was minimal, but Faye, Morgan, Isaiah and Chance passed with flying colors. When extra weight was added, the bridge collapsed like an exhausted marathon runner, but that's a problem for another day.






Students had an exciting opportunity to explore career possibilities at Kawasaki and Hughes Brothers during their recent tours! They gained valuable insights into various roles and industries, sparking ideas for their future paths.
