Each year during American Education Week, senior class officers begin the process of selecting a graduate from Butler High School to receive the Distinguished Graduate Award.

Do you know a past graduate who has achieved something outstanding in his or her chosen profession or has made contributions to the community, state or nation? You may obtain a nomination form from the district website, the senior high website, or at any school office to make a nomination for this distinguished award. The deadline for nominations is April 1, 2022. The recipient is announced each year at commencement.
