Hello Butternut Bulldog Families,

Welcome back! We hope that you have had a fun-filled summer and are looking forward to getting back to school.  I can’t wait to see all of you as we start another great school year! We are now AVID schoolwide, with grades K-6 participating in the AVID program supporting students for future success. Our staff remains commited to our Culture of Care, ensuring a safe and welcoming environment for all students. We are excited to welcome new staff members to our building and continuing what makes Butternut Creek Elementary such a wonderful place to be. 

Below you will find helpful reminders and important dates to start the school year off with success. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us by calling (503) 844-1390 or email me directly at johnsond@hsd.k12.or.us. Enjoy the remainder of your summer, keep your student(s) reading, and we’ll see you soon!

Important Reminders:

• Office hours 7:15 a.m. – 3:15 p.m.  Phone number: 503-844-1390.

• School starts at 7:45 a.m. and ends at 2:05 p.m.  On Wednesdays, school ends at 1:35 p.m.

• School doors open at 7:20 a.m. Supervision is not available prior to that. Please ensure your students do not arrive prior to 7:20 a.m. as that would be a safety concern.

• Attendance – Every day counts! Each day your child is here is an opportunity for them to grow both academically and socially. Your student should have fewer than 9 days of absence during the school year to ensure school success! Attendance line (503) 844-1393.

In partnership,

Dani Johnson
