Mr. Raymond Butler (Assistant Principal)

Mr. Raymond Butler

Greetings Grannemann Families,

I am starting my 27 year in education, all with the Hazelwood School District. I have 20 years of classroom experience, where I previously taught Physical Education at Jury and Armstrong. This will be my 7th year in administration, having served two years as the Assistant Principal at Lusher before joining Grannemann. I received my Bachelor's degree in Physical Education from Kentucky State University and my Master's degree in Educational Administration from Lindenwood University.

I am married with two children. During my spare time, I enjoy traveling with my wife, tinkering with classic cars, and watching my daughter play basketball.

At Grannemann, we believe every child deserves to feel safe, valued, challenged, and celebrated. We are committed to creating a positive learning environment where every student can grow academically, socially, and emotionally. Our goal is to help each child develop confidence, character, and a lifelong love of learning while encouraging them to reach their fullest potential.

We also recognize that a child's success is built on a strong partnership between school and home. Your support, encouragement, and involvement make an incredible difference in your child's educational journey. Whether you're volunteering, attending school events, communicating with teachers, or simply encouraging your child each day, your partnership is deeply appreciated and valued.

As your Assistant Principal, I am committed to being a visible, approachable, and supportive member of our school community. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions, concerns, or ideas. My door is always open, and I am here to support our students, families, and staff in any way I can.

Thank you for entrusting us with your child's education. I am excited for another outstanding school year and look forward to all we will accomplish together.

"We can and WE WILL!"
