Southern Wells High School teacher David Butler is the March winner of NBC33's Excellence In Education Award for March. He was nominated by Shanda Miller who wrote a very endearing letter to help secure his win. Butler teaches Biology and other related classes, and is highly admired and respected by his students, many of whom are part of a large Biology Club at the school.
Mr. Butler prides himself in making his classes unique and fun, but also consistently challenging his students to work hard and improve themselves. His class room features a bit of a mini - zoo with several snakes, "Lizzy The Lizard", and a tarantula.
