Note from Principal Reeves -
Bulldog Cadets,
I want to extend my deepest gratitude and heartfelt congratulations to each of you for representing Butler High School with excellence this past weekend. Your participation in the Deployment/Mobilization Ceremony at the 145th Airlift Wing in Charlotte was a powerful demonstration of leadership, service, and pride.
By serving as our distinguished Color Guard and supporting ushers and escorts for families and VIPs, you honored not only our military community but also the values we hold dear at Butler. Your presence helped make the event memorable for the Soldiers and their families, and your professionalism reflected the very best of our school.
Thank you for your commitment, your character, and your continued pursuit of excellence. You make us proud to be Bulldogs!
