Task Force
As a result of shifting populations in Huntsville and in an effort to find ways to save money, the Huntsville City School Board commissioned a Joint Facility Utilization Task Force. Butler High School was determined to be operating at approximately 35% capacity. The recommendation of the task force was that the Huntsville City School system find a way to relocate ancillary school system activities to Butler. The task force made its recommendation for Butler and various other schools in the system and the Huntsville City Board of Education voted to adopt and approve the findings on September 2, 2008.

Famous quotes containing the words task and/or force:
“From cradle to grave this problem of running order through chaos, direction through space, discipline through freedom, unity through multiplicity, has always been, and must always be, the task of education, as it is the moral of religion, philosophy, science, art, politics and economy; but a boy’s will is his life, and he dies when it is broken, as the colt dies in harness, taking a new nature in becoming tame.”
—Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
“When we can drain the Ocean into mill-ponds, and bottle up the Force of Gravity, to be sold by retail, in gas jars; then may we hope to comprehend the infinitudes of man’s soul under formulas of Profit and Loss; and rule over this too, as over a patent engine, by checks, and valves, and balances.”
—Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)
