Butte High School

Butte High Schoo — On Butte High School, On Butte High School, fight for vic-to-ry. Chilling words for those of us and our forefathers who have roamed the marble halls and passed through the once heavily laden copper doors of Butte High School, the “soul” of Butte America. A school rich in academic and sports tradition since 1896, a symbol of unchanged purpose, a dedication of excellence, and a tribute to the spirit of an undying breed; a Butte icon characterized by a tenacity and well reflective of its melting pot chemistry and a tribute to every Day’s Pay Miner who ever packed a lunch pail up Main Street or to every Bulldog who ever ran out of the tunnel dressed in purple and white whether it be the old Naranche or the now Butte High Memorial Stadium.
