2025 SENIOR INFORMATION
2025 SENIOR INFORMATION
Parents and Seniors, the big year is here! We wanted to try to help simplify the year by having pertinent information all in one place. A lot of important information will be posted in your student’s “Class of 2025” classroom throughout the year. They are familiar with it and know how it works. Encourage them to check it weekly as well as checking their email frequently. You may have them show you the classroom as well so you can be in the know. Please keep in mind your student needs to maintain a cumulative 90% attendance rate to walk at graduation.

If your student is going to college or participating in the A+ program they may need to take the ACT. Butler High School will host the ACT on October 26, 2024 and December 14, 2024. The ACT will also be offered at other area schools that students may sign up before. Clink the link above for more details.
You may use the link above to find more information regarding the FAFSA as well as create your account. Please click here for another helpful resource. FAFSA facts are located here.
In order to participate in the A+ scholarship the A+ packet must be signed and returned to the Counseling center. If you need to verify that your student has signed up for the A+ scholarship please email Mrs. Watson at jalyn.watson@butler.k12.mo.us or the direct line is 660-679-6121 ext 253. The guidelines are listed on both links above. You may check your students status to see if they are currently meeting the guidelines for A+ at any given time on the parent portal. The A+ section is located under the “More” tab. Please click here for a list of schools that you are eligible to use the scholarship at.
Our website features some local scholarships as well as national level scholarships. There are also other resources offered under this tab. Please check this tab frequently. Local scholarships are not typically updated until closer to due dates due to foundations not getting us updated information until then. If you or your student has any questions about scholarships please feel free to contact the counseling center at any time.
