Summit Elementary School fourth grade students in Mrs. Reges' and Mrs. Eyth's room were tasked with a project based on their social studies curriculum.

We are very excited to share that Butler Area School District has been awarded a $1,382,353 grant through the Pennsylvania Department of Education! At the April 8th school board meeting, I shared with the BASD Board of School Directors that these funds are through the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (BSCA), which was signed into law on June 25, 2022. Through this legislation, Congress authorized $1 billion in funding to provide students with safer and healthier learning environments.  

The Golden Tornado Scholastic Foundation, Inc.'s 21st annual Fine Arts & Beyond (FAB) Showcase was a great success. The student artwork was incredible and the student musical performances were outstanding. Thank you to everyone who helped make the event a success!

The Butler County Early Care & Education Councils’ upcoming free event, entitled ‘Spring into School Readiness” will take place on Saturday, April 27, 2024 at the Clearview Mall. 

Representatives from Butler Area School District will be at the event, which also includes a great lineup of activities from 10:30 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. There will be live programs, community organizations with learning activities, free books, prizes, snacks and more.

Ms. Heilman-Houser and Mrs. Sneddon’s second grade classes at Summit Elementary School made natural dyes from food to dye Easter eggs!

The students used the demonstration kitchen to create dyes from cabbage, beets, blueberries, onion skins, and turmeric. Then they dyed eggs that they got to take home for Easter. While waiting for the dyes to boil, the students worked in groups to create posters about one of the dyes. Then they will share their posters, which include information about the food, observations, the recipe, and pictures. 

Students in Mrs. Michelini‘s first grade class at Summit Elementary School recently completed a project-based learning experience involving creating an ice cream shop!
