Library
Mrs. Butler is excited to join the Claiborne High School family as the school librarian and is proud to be a Bulldog! She has six years of experience in education, all with Claiborne County Schools. Mrs. Butler began her teaching career as a fourth-grade teacher at TNT Primary School before transitioning to the library the following year.
Mrs. Butler earned her B.S. in Elementary Education and her M.Ed in School Librarianship and Technology from East Tennessee State University. She looks forward to creating a welcoming library where students can explore new ideas, discover great books, and develop the skills they need for success in both the classroom and in their careers.
