At Butler High School it takes some time to get used to the school. When you first get there figuring out the teachers is very important because some teachers aren't as good as others in terms of actually caring about if the students learn. The environment of this school is nothing special so it just fits as a checkpoint in between middle school and college.

Butler high school is the best high school in Richmond county. You have teachers here who go out their way to make sure you're on the right track. The school Counselors go above to help you apply for scholarships, colleges, put you on the track to succeed. I'm glad I spent my four years here.

My experience with Butler High school was great minus COVID-19 had happened in my 9th grade year but after everything was great. That my 10th grade was a very great year for me that most of the work I thought I didn't know I had knew along. But my 11th grade year was the year I was pushing myself to do the best that I could do I was so hardworking that I kept telling myself to keep going till next year and become a Honor Graduate. My 12th grade was very hard on me or so I've thought I was going to after school for tutoring mostly everyday to keep my grades up to be a A honor student and I have did. Honors Day at my school in my 12th grade year was something that made me cry that I finished with all A's and with Honor Graduate status I will truly miss all my teacher from Butler High School I am indeed grateful.
