She was a second and fourth grade teacher in Oregon for 15 years. Over the last five years she has followed her passion of coaching teachers and educational equity spending time as an Instructional Coach and currently in year 3 as the equity coordinator in the Bethel School District. She was named the 2021 Oregon Teacher of the Year\, becoming the first Indigenous teacher in Oregon to earn this recognition. Butler-Hooton is a member of the Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians- Chetco Band (Oregon) and the San Carlos Apache Tribe (Arizona). A first-generation college graduate\, she values making connections with students\, families and the school community\, while centering equity and cultural competency in her teaching. \nNicole holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Sociology with a focus on Ethnic Studies\, and a Master’s Degree in Elementary Education from the University of Oregon\, where she was part of the Sapsik’ʷałá Teacher Education Program. She is currently enrolled in an Ed.D program through Walden University specializing in Curriculum\, Assessment\, and Instruction. \nButler-Hooton says her primary professional goal is to engage in decolonization practices\, policy change\, social justice\, anit-racist curriculum\, and more humanized approaches to teaching and learning. She believes that Indigenous children need access to a more truthful education that allows them to realize their Indigenous self-identity\, language and culture through accurate representation in their lives.
