• At the Butler, our goal is to create college- and career-bound students. Our school is divided into a Lower Academy (5th & 6th grade) and an Upper Academy (7th & 8th grade). 

    Our mission is to create a vibrant learning community where each student receives rigorous, meaningful instruction, achieves measurable growth, and develops personally and academically.

    Our vision is for all students to leave each school year stronger, more engaged, and prepared to excel in their future and contribute positively to society.

    Our school is honored to be the only institution in New England recognized as both a United Nations Global School and a Full-Service Community School.

    This distinction highlights our commitment to the holistic development of each member of our school community through global citizenship and community partnerships.
