Buhler Staff and Families,
With the significant snowfall our area received and the drifting that occurred today, Buhler USD #313 will not be in session on Wednesday, January 10th. There are many roads and sidewalks that are dry but the country and side roads are still unsafe for young drivers and buses.
A determination on practices will be made by noon tomorrow after we evaluate the road conditions.
We look forward to seeing everyone back on Thursday!

Buhler Staff and Families,
When considering having school with inclement weather being forecasted, but not yet having arrived, I look at the National Weather Service confidence level on arrival time, location, and severity. I have attended webinars and watched carefully the changing forecast over the past 3 days.
All indicators and models from the NWS indicate a high confidence in three areas as of this evening. Due to the timing of the storm, wind and expected poor visibility, Buhler USD #313 will NOT be in session on Tuesday, January 9th.

Buhler Families and Staff,
Although the roads at 5:00 this morning appeared to only be slightly accumulating snow, the radar indicates heavy snowfall continuing throughout the morning. A two hour delay does not gain much advantage with the radar predictions. Our district is large and the south and west side of the district road conditions are deteriorating already. In an abundance of caution, Buhler Schools will not have school on Friday, January 5th.
We have many activities today and a determination on attending those events will be communicated by 10:00 this morning. Middle school practices are canceled for Friday.
Cindy Couchman, Superintendent

School attendance matters, especially in the early grades when we are covering crucial phonics skills and foundational number sense. Take a look through the images to see all the ways 90% attendance positively affects student learning.
Our district goal is for at least 93% of our students to attend at least 90% of school days.
No, we don't want you to send your children to school if they're sick, but do try your best to schedule appointments and trips outside of school time. We get it, that feels like a tall order! We're all in this together!

Test
Reading opens doors!
If you have a small child at home, read two picture books before bed. If your child is older try a chapter or two before bed. The more a child is read to the easier it is to learn how to read independently!
