Buffalo Point Elementary

Words from the Herd Wednesday A kindergarten student confidently explained to a staff member that she has a glass eye—even pulling on her eyelid and warning that it “isn’t waterproof.” For the record… she does not have a glass eye. Kids say the wildest things, and honestly, they keep us laughing on a daily basis. #WordsFromTheHerd #BuffaloPoint

Check out our December MVP's. These students of the month have shown great character in their classes and we are very proud of them.

The PTA meeting scheduled for tomorrow has been canceled. Thanks for all the support. Our next meeting will be January 21.

Teaching Tuesday at Buffalo Point! Our students earned a special game day in the library as a reward for the incredible responsibility, respect, and focus they’ve shown all term during library time. Learning how to use shared spaces well is an important life skill—and today they celebrated their success with games, teamwork, and lots of smiles. We’re proud of their hard work paying off! #TeachingTuesday #BuffaloPoint

Teaching Tuesday! Our third graders filled the cafeteria with creativity today as they built colorful paper chains while learning real-world economics. They’re practicing production, teamwork, and planning as they gear up for their big Economics Fair next Friday. Buffalo Point learners are hard at work — and having fun along the way! #TeachingTuesday #BuffaloPoint

Just a reminder that tomorrow is not early out. It is a full day. School ends at 3:30. There is no school Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday.

Fun Friday at Buffalo Point!
It’s the 67th day of school, and the 6–7 trend lives on. Today’s pic says it all: “I survived 67 days of school!”

We’ve made it through 6… we’ve made it through 7… and all the way to 67. We’re making every day count.

#FunFriday #BuffaloPoint #67

Congratulations and good job for how awesome our student did at the annual Martin Luther King speech event. Way to go!

Words from the Herd Wednesday!

Today’s moment comes from a student celebrating en grande with a sombrero and a class-wide serenade of “¡Feliz cumpleaños!”

We love seeing our students celebrate each other and bring joy into the classroom.

Words from the Herd Wednesday

Kids are endlessly curious—today one student’s search history proudly asked, “How to convince my parents to buy me slime.”

We see you, future negotiator.

Teaching Tuesday
Our students are moving their writing forward—literally! These lessons use whole-body actions from SRSD to help students plan, organize, and strengthen their writing. It’s active, it’s engaging, and best of all… it’s working.

Fun Friday! Today was Colonial Day in 5th grade, and our students went all-in on the experience! From dressing in period clothing to making candles and trying hands-on activities from the “olden days,” they got a small taste of what life was like long ago. We love seeing learning come alive—great job, 5th grade!

Thank You Thursday Even though Veterans Day was earlier this week, we want to extend our gratitude once again to all our veterans—especially those who joined us for our assembly. We’re thankful for your service, your sacrifice, and the commitment shown by both you and your families. We appreciate you.

Words from the Herd Wednesday We love the way students describe things. A student was outside and took a whiff, then said: “What’s that smell? It smells like Idaho.” Kids keep us laughing, guessing… and apparently sniff-testing the states. #Wordsfromtheherd #BuffaloPoint

Teaching Tuesday Learning takes many forms—sometimes it’s math or reading, and sometimes it’s understanding why we stand in silence. Today, students learned about “Taps” and reflect on the service of our nation’s veterans. Thank you vets and military heroes! #TeachingTuesday #VeteransDay #BPE #BuffaloPointElementary
