A Message from the Principal, Dr. Butts

November 1, 2025

Dear Bluebird Families,

October was an incredible month at Alvaton Elementary! From our festive Fall Festival and Red Ribbon Week celebrations to the creative classroom learning and joyful family events, our Bluebirds continue to shine brightly in every way. I am so proud of our students, staff, and families for the energy and support you bring to our school each day.

As we enter November, we are reminded of how much we have to be thankful for—our Bluebird community, our dedicated teachers and staff, and our students who inspire us daily. This month is filled with opportunities for learning, service, and celebration. Please mark your calendars for the following important dates:

November 3 – Parent Engagement Day
November 5 – Cookie Dough Fundraiser Ends
November 6 – Patriotic Day Music Performance (3rd–4th Grades, 6:00 p.m.)
November 11 – Veterans Day Breakfast & Program 9am
November 13 – Academic Team Meet vs. Lost River (Library, 4:00 p.m.)
November 14 – Midterm Ends
November 17 – Washington, D.C. Spirit Night at Texas Roadhouse
November 19 – 6th Grade Academic Team Meet @ Briarwood (4:15 p.m.)
November 20 – Picture Make-Up Day
November 25 – Winter Wonderland Decorating Day (Volunteers Needed!) & Hat Day to Support D.C.

Our Veterans Day Program on November 11th is always one of the most meaningful events of the year. We invite families to join us as we honor the heroes who have served our country with courage and dedication.

Later in the month, we’ll transform our hallways into a Winter Wonderland—a joyful Alvaton tradition that helps us close the fall semester on a festive note. We’d love your help decorating on November 25th—please join us if you’re able!

As we give thanks this season, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to all our Bluebird families for your partnership, encouragement, and commitment to our students’ success. Together, we continue to make Alvaton Elementary a place where every child can learn, lead, and SOAR.

With appreciation,
Dr.  Pauletha Butts
Principal

First Lady Beshear is offering a great free service to all KY schools! TeachingBooks.net!

Today, as part of her commitment to Kentucky students, First Lady Britainy Beshear announced that TeachingBooks is now available and free to use at all Kentucky schools and libraries throughout the commonwealth, as well as online from a laptop or cellphone. This website provides learning resources about approximately 100,000 books for children and young adults.

“Reading to children, either in the classroom or in our public libraries, is one of my favorite things to do,” the First Lady said. “On my visits around the state, I’ve learned that teachers, librarians and families are always looking for ways to bring stories to life for their kids, just like Andy and I loved to do for Will and Lila. That’s exactly what TeachingBooks is all about.” 

She also shared “Winnie’s Christmas Book Club,” a list of picture books that would make great gifts for Kentucky kids this Christmas season. These include holiday booksKentucky books and some of the Beshear family’s all-time favorite stories. They are all featured on TeachingBooks here, with book cover jigsaw puzzles, videos, discussion questions and more.

The First Lady also encouraged buying from local bookstores and supporting Kentucky authors when shopping.
