Welcome Back Maroons

Welcome Back, Butte Central Families!

We are excited to begin the 2026–2027 school year at Butte Central Elementary/Jr. High! We warmly welcome all our returning families and extend a special welcome to the many new families joining our Butte Central community.

It has been wonderful to see so many new faces filling our classrooms and hallways. There is already such great energy throughout our school! We look forward to a year filled with faith, learning, friendship, kindness, and growth.

We are very fortunate to have our dedicated returning teachers with us again this year. We are also pleased to welcome our new teachers:

• Angela McGee — Kindergarten

• Lexi Peterson — Fifth Grade

• Mariah Lefever — Part-Time Jr. High Religion

We are also blessed to have two amazing student teachers from the University of Montana Western, Sage Wall and Miranda Murray. Welcome, Sage and Miranda! We are excited to have you as part of our school community.

May God bless our students, families, faculty, and staff as we begin this new school year together. We are grateful to have each of you as part of our Butte Central family!

Welcome back, Maroons—here’s to a wonderful year!
