Dear S.B. Butler Families,

S.B. Butler Elementary School will be used as a polling location for tomorrow’s presidential primary election, Tuesday, April 26th. Voters will enter the main entrance of the school and be guided directly into our gym where voting will take place. The secondary, interior door will remained locked as standard protocol. In preparation for tomorrow, please note the below changes that will impact our drop-off and pick up procedures.

Morning Drop-Off:  All buses will unload at the first gate upon entering the school’s upper parking lot. Breakfast students will be directed to the cafeteria. All other students will wait on the upper black top of the lower grade recess area. (We will escort all students to the cafeteria, if it is raining.)  Parents that drive their students to school will drop them off in the same location. Staff members will be present to escort them to the lower grade recess area. Afternoon Pick-Up:  Buses will be dismissed out front, one at a time.  Parent pick up will be located in the grassy area between the portable classrooms, to the left of the gym at that back exit. Staff will be present to assist. (The blacktop area by the cafeteria will be used for staff parking.)

I thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Steve Wheeler Principal, S.B. Butler Elementary School
