Butler Tech
Butler Tech is an Ohio Career Technical Center that provides a broad array of career-focused education to students from seventh grade well into adulthood. Our programs are designed to transform a student’s passion for a career into a sense of purpose for life.
Butler Tech offers multiple pathways to train students for in-demand careers. Some students will choose to enter the workforce directly upon completing a program. By earning licenses and certifications in high school, they can start earning higher wages than they might with a high school diploma alone. Other students will pursue higher education. Our high school offers students many options to earn college credit free of charge, which can greatly reduce the burden of student loan debt. Students also have multiple opportunities to earn scholarships and gain relevant work experience through apprenticeships, internships and job shadowing. Butler Tech Adult Education offers short-term programs that not only make students more employable, they also place students into critical roles that make our communities safer and healthier.

Additional Culture Details
Each fall, the district gathers all employees together for an annual meeting. In 2018, the day began with opportunities for personal development where employees chose to experience a new skill or craft taught to them by a colleague. Experiences included everything from horseback riding, welding, and driving a semi-truck to making yarn, macaroons and hand-painted crafts. Some of the activities correlated to Butler Tech career education and some did not. Either way, it provided our employees with an opportunity to see what others are passionate about.
Following the personal development portion of the day, the staff came together to be recognized for years of service, with some staffers having 5, 10, 20, even 30 plus years with the organization.
