Tech's Tim Butler Served Our Country and Now Serves Shreveport Students

Picture retrieved from GOOGLE images
Mr. Tim Butler is a veteran of  Operation Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom.  After braving multiple tours in the US Navy, he is now leading and serving on a new front, inspiring students to learn more about the history of America and the wars and decisions that have shaped this nation.  Following his service, Butler returned home to care for his ailing father. Once home, he made the decision to utilize support from the GI bill to finish his degree through Louisiana Tech University's College of Education (COE) in secondary education. He currently serves at Woodlawn High School in Shreveport, LA.  We are proud of Mr. Butler's service to our nation and to his community, and are honored that he has chosen to pursue his Master's in Education through one our many teacher education programs at the College of Education.  Recent coverage by KTBS of Tim and his accomplishments can be viewed by clicking the link below.
