Butler Tech Fairfield Township Campus D. Russel Lee Building

I attended Butler Tech Fairfield Township Campus D. Russel Lee for my junior and senior of high school. One of the best decisions I ever made, for both my academic career, but professional career as well. Being within the Information Technology program, I was given the opportunity to learn about the IT industry and beyond. With the guidance of the IT program instructor and academic faculty, I was assisted in becoming prepared for on the job experience. Every faculty member treated their students like adults. For me, I was able to accelerate my academic and professional career. Without Butler Tech, the information technology program, and the other faculty, I would not be where I am today. For that, I thank everyone at Butler Tech.

I can easily say that going to Butler Tech for my Junior and Senior year of High School was one of the best decisions I have ever made! I chose to study in the Information Technology program, and I walked out with so much more information and knowledge than I would have thought. My instructors, Mr. Newman and Mr. Chambers, were very uplifting, and always encouraged me to be the best I could possibly be. I cannot thank them enough for their motivation and encouragement during the two years I attended.

Not only were my instructors awesome to be around, but my classmates were awesome as well. Every single one of my classmates in my Information Technology program shared the same interests as me, and it helped us to grow closer to each other like family. We always helped out one another, we always encouraged one another, and we always stuck together.

In terms of the curriculum, speaking for the Information Technology program itself, it will be difficult at times. Mr. Newman, as well as Mr. Chambers, will treat you like you would be treated in the work force. I personally loved and admired this about them. The reality is, in the workforce, your managers wont be able to hold your hand 24/7. I loved the idea of being prepared early on to work my very hardest. This is just one of many things I have to thank Butler Tech for.

Overall, I cannot recommend this school enough. With hands-on learning, engaging activities, and a room full of future family, Butler Tech will ensure you get the most out of your last two years of High School.

Going into the IT program at Butler Tech is probably the best decision I've made in my life. At my home school I had a harder time fitting in because I felt no one shared my passion for computers. When I toured the campus during career days I felt comfortable because everyone there shared my passion. Within the first few weeks at Butler Tech, I went from being the quiet kid to helping lead the class. The amount of opportunities I had at Butler Tech were immeasurable and I regret not taking advantage of more of them. I went in with the basic knowledge of how to turn a computer on and left with my Comptia A+ certification that will no doubt assist me in getting a job down the road. Most of my best memories are at Butler Tech and I miss my time there. This decision impacted my life for the better.

The IT program landed me a job coming out of school and had allowed me to get a head start on my career. The instructors apply real world situations and environments to the course and they push you to make yourself marketable and assertive. I don’t regret going here one bit and am incredibly grateful to be apart of the Butler Tech Information Technology program.
