All activities for Saturday and Sunday (January 24-25) have been cancelled due to anticipated weather conditions. Athletic activities scheduled for Friday evening will continue as planned. Buhler facilities will be closed to outside practices and events on Saturday and Sunday. These decisions are being made with the safety of our students, staff, and community in mind. Keeping traffic out of parking lots and off sidewalks will also help ensure safe and efficient snow removal.

January is Board Appreciation Month but we appreciate the service of our Board of Education EVERY month. To those that have served in the past and to those currently serving....THANK YOU!
Our members felt the love from our Crusaders at Union Valley and Plum Creek. Check out these pics! Hopefully they put a smile on your face as big as it did our BOE members Monday night.
See the flyer for additional details.
Thank you to our local law enforcement for keeping us informed and, as always, safe! At no time were staff or students in danger.

November is a month for feeling thankful and honoring the work our staff do each day! Let's give them a "Standing Ovation!"
We know you’ve experienced a Buhler Schools employee going above and beyond for you, a student, a parent, a peer, or a community member! Please help us recognize that employee by completing this "Standing Ovation" nomination form.
https://forms.gle/pSDVzSSQTFX3sKB79
Each nominee will get a certificate of appreciation with your kind and uplifting words on the back.
We know that many individuals and families in our school community are feeling the strain of rising costs, reduced benefits, and the upcoming holiday season. During times like these, the strength of our Buhler community truly shines when we come together to care for one another.
Beginning next week, we invite families and community members who are able to do so to donate a “Meal in a Bag” to help provide food support for others in our community. Each meal includes simple ingredients that can be found via the “dinner in a bag” link located on this document: https://5il.co/3rtj9. You will also see additional food resources for those in need. See the picture for one example of these meals.
Donations may be dropped off at any Buhler school, the district office, or sent with your student beginning Tuesday, November 4th. At this time, we will accept meal in a bag donations through Thanksgiving break. Meal kits will be sent home with families who have requested food support via an internal and confidential survey.
Thank you for embodying what it means to be part of the Buhler family, a community that cares deeply for one another.

The day included leadership and team-building games, training on leading by example and with our voices, a guest speaker, and even a handshake competition. Congratulations to Kinley, our first-ever handshake champion! Students are now ready to take these skills back to their schools and lead with confidence.
A huge thank-you to our Cru Leader Sponsors for designing meaningful activities, our amazing parent volunteers, and guest speaker Shane Iwashige, a certified leadership coach with the Kansas Leadership Center.
It was a fantastic day, and we’re already excited for next year!
