In it, we have all three principals who have ever served at the school. Keith Hammon (2002-2007) and Dave Cushman (2007-2014) came back to our 5th grade Moving Up Ceremony with Steve Saunders (2014-present).
They were joined by Ms. Jimmy Reid, the original landowner of our property. She lived here with her husband from 1950-2000, when she sold all 55 acres to Albemarle County to build a new school.
Dr. Marie Baker, widow of Colonel John Baker (one of our namesakes), also joined us for this event. Dr. Baker still visits Baker-Butler regularly, and she continues the tradition her husband started of bringing 2 bushels of local apples in the fall for the staff.
We appreciate the deep contributions of Dr. Baker, Ms. Reid, Mr. Cushman, and Mr. Hammon.
