I can't ask for a better teacher then MS. Arsenault. a Kindergarten teacher. She has taught my daughter so much this year. We were blessed to have such a wonderful teacher. I know Brianne will miss her very much as she goes to the 1st grade. Kristy

My son transferred last year from a private school on a permit. we have been absolutely thrilled with the education he has recevied from Butler. The teachers truly care about and take a personal interest in each and every student, and the parent involvement is incredible. My son literally went from a shy, withdrawn kid who hated school to an active, enthusiastic young man who is excited to go to school every day. His grades and test schores have improved beyond my wildest dreams. This coming year will be his last at Butler and we will be sorry to leave.

I moved to Louisiana from Belize and having been a teacher myself it was important to me that my son would attend a school that primarily focused on discipline and teacher/student relationship. I visited several schools within the district that my son was attend, but found none to meet my standards. As soon as I approached the entrance of the school I knew that was going to be it. The Drug Free School Zone sign, the clean appearance, hightly polished, varnished wooden floors, the very polite and mannerly students (e.g. opening doors for you and moving to the side so that you could pass). The friendly and welcoming staff just put the icing on the cake. I am very comfortable with the school and it is even a deciding factor considering moving to a home. My son is on a permit and I don't want to move too far away. I rank the school a 4 on a scale of 1 to 5.

Butler Elementary is a wonderful School. My child was sent here on a permit because he had difficulties at his district school. He is a totally changed child. He gets the needed attention and the learning environment is remarkable. He is doing things academically that we never thought he would do. He comes home everyday happy and can't wait to go back the next day. I hope he can attend next year on permit again because he will truly have a wonderful school experience if he continues to go to Butler.
