The Butler County Water District promotes education in the water supply field by offering an annual scholarship to a graduating high school senior.  Dustin Johnson of Butler County High School was presented with a $1,000 scholarship to Western Kentucky University for the 2020-2021 academic year.

“Dustin’s qualities of a hard-working student and community servant elevated him as the top candidate. He held various leadership/officer roles in high school while earning over 300 community hours. Dustin was a familiar face with the Morgantown Nursing Home Visitation program. We are excited to offer assistance as he furthers his higher education by pursuing a degree in accounting at WKU, said Warren Water General Manager John Dix. “This scholarship is another way that we can serve our community and our customers.” 

In an effort to foster success of future water utility professionals the scholarship is offered to

assist a Butler County high school senior pursuing further education in a related field.  The scholarship is renewable for four years, as long as requirements are maintained.
