Dr. Butler Interview

By: Brooklyn Woodard

Why did you start working with kids?
I really like helping kids learn things about themselves and about life. I really feel that it is a gift from God to be able to work with all kids to make a difference.

When did you start working with kids?
I started working with kids at church when I was about 15 years old.

When you were younger did you ever think you would work with kids?
Yes, I knew from an early age that I wanted to work with children and to become a teacher.

Are there any interesting facts about you?
I am an only child. I love to scrapbook in my spare time. I have 2 daughters who I love to spend time with and be silly and crazy with. I am also a cake decorator.

Why did you decide to work with younger kids rather than older kids?
I have a lot of energy so I work well with younger kids because our energy level matches one another.

Why did you come to Jefferson?
I came to Jefferson because I get an opportunity to work with students one on one to change their behavior and to become a successful student in school as well as in the community. Jefferson seems to be a very friendly place to work with happy people.
