There will be no school on Friday and the district office will be closed.
Two of our teachers; Rachel Harder, 4th grade at Union Valley and Greg Froese, ELA at BHS, are spending the day learning with fellow state teacher of the year nominees today.

It is SO exciting to have the 43rd avenue bridge back open! This will be so helpful for our bus routes.
Thank you to ALL who worked so hard to get this built!

Shout out to the Reno County Public Works Department for putting in extra hours to get the bridge ready to open tomorrow (and way ahead of schedule). It is 8:15 pm and they were putting the finishing touches on it!
At 9:00 tomorrow morning, we will send a bus to officially open it!
And as a bonus on my bike ride, I got to talk to a previous student and Buhler grad who was working on it this late. Thanks, Matt Wilcox, for being game to take a pic! #bexceptional
