Please join us in welcoming Miss Jennifer Butler to Deer Lakes School District!

Miss Butler is a 2021 Deer Lakes graduate, and her former teachers inspired her to pursue a career in education. She earned a Bachelors degree in Early Childhood Education and Special Education at Slippery Rock University.

"I grew up in Deer Lakes, and it is the place that has shaped me not only as a student but a person and an educator," Miss Butler said. "I couldn’t think of a better way to give back to the community!"

Miss Butler began her career at Royal Oak Nursery and Kindergarten, and she also worked at the Watson Institute-Friendship Academy. She will be a Learning Support teacher at Deer Lakes High School.

"I have always truly wanted to be a teacher," Miss Butler said. "It has always been a dream of mine to have the opportunity to be a safe, supportive, and welcoming space for children, just as many of my teachers were for me throughout my education."
