Principal's Message

Dear Mary Butterworth School Community,

Mary Butterworth School is a positive and caring school that values the relationships we have with our students, our families and our school community.  We have high expectations of our students and challenge them to be the best they can be academically, physically, socially and emotionally.

As a staff team, we work collaboratively towards a common approach, and we are united in our commitment to ensure that our working and learning environment feels safe, welcoming, caring, and respectful.  We are also committed to ensuring our students learn the critical skills and understandings necessary for leading a life of dignity and fulfillment. 

Parents and guardians will receive information related to special school events, meetings, and other information via SchoolZone.epsb.ca.  SchoolZone also gives families access to school information, progress reports, attendance information and specific classroom news.  If you require a password for SchoolZone, or assistance with using it, please contact the office.

We look forward to working together with all of our MBS community this year!

Sincerely,

Brenda Mulder
