Butterton School District Number 3729
From the chapter of the same name by A.L. Fuller
In 1916 a petition was sent to form a school for 20 children in the district. The school building was erected on
SE section 15 township 24 range 20 and opened in 1917 under the tutelage of Mrs. Elizabeth Hall. Students of Butterton
district were bussed to the Bryn Mawr Consolidated School of the Cupar School Unit No 28 in 1956. The old Butterton
school and teacherage were both moved to the Bryn Mawr School site. Families opted to bus their children to Strasbourg
School, a part of the Govan School Unit No 29 in 1968.
