Parents, if you need to check a student out, please arrive before 255. We have our Veterans Day assembly starting at that time and it involves everybody.
Chip found the buddy bench! He’s always ready to make a new friend. Who’s sitting with Chip today? #MascotMonday#BuffaloPoint
November MVPs
We’re excited to celebrate our Students of the Month for November! These MVPs have shown outstanding effort, kindness, and leadership in their classrooms and around the school. We’re proud of their example and the positive impact they make every day.

Tonight is the night to head to Zupas for dinner. When you check out, make sure you let them know that you are with Buffalo Point. If you order on the app, make sure you go into fundraiser mode and select Buffalo Point. Thanks for supporting our wonderful PTA.
For our thank you, Thursday, we want to give a thank you and an invite to veterans and active military members. On Tuesday, we will hold a Veterans Day recognition assembly. We invite the parents and grandparents of our students who served or currently serve to join us. The assembly will start at about 3:00 PM.
Words from the Herd Wednesday
Sometimes honesty is the first step toward growth.
When asked what he could do differently after talking out and interrupting learning, a student thought for a moment and said, “I guess I could stop talking.”
The follow-up question came: “Yes, you could—so next time, will you?”
After another pause, he answered, “...Probably not.”
We’re hopeful he proves himself wrong—but we appreciated his self-awareness and honesty! Growth starts with knowing where you are.

Correction on previous post--the Zupas night is tomorrow, Thursday.
Teaching Tuesday
After learning about Ancient Mesopotamia, our Buffalo Point students tried their hand at history—carving their own names into clay tablets using the world’s first written language, Cuneiform! Such a fun and hands-on way to connect with ancient civilizations.

Just hanging out above it all. Nothing like a rooftop view to keep an eye on the herd! #MascotMonday #BuffaloPointElementary
Fun Friday part 2
Just a few more fun pics of kids in their costumes and participating in the variety of activities for Halloween.
It was an extra fun Friday today with Halloween. Our little buffaloes were dressed in all kinds of exciting costumes, with several coordinating. Thanks to all the volunteers who came and supported in the class activities. Happy Halloween.

Our students rocked their K-pop Demon Hunters costumes today! From bold colors to fierce poses, they brought this action-packed movie to life for Halloween!
Tomorrow at the parade, we will have a table set up with all of our lost and found items. After the parade, they will be moved to the steps at the front of the school. We invite parents and students to check those locations and collect their items.
Buffalo Point students had a blast at our PTA Movie of the Month! We watched K-Pop Demon Hunters—and it quickly turned into a full-on sing-along Laughter, music, and community fun made it a night to remember.

Thank-You Thursday
Today we want to shine the spotlight on Miss Mindy, our amazing librarian! Not only does she keep our library a wonderful place to learn and explore, but she’s always ready to jump in wherever help is needed. She listens, supports, and encourages both students and staff — truly the heart and soul of our school. We are so lucky to have her!

Words from the Herd Wednesday
Sometimes our Buffalos say it best! One of our 2nd graders, feeling the weight of school expectations, looked at his teacher and declared:
"As soon as I get a job, I’m out of here!”
We love the honesty, the humor, and the reminder that even our youngest learners are already dreaming about the future.

Don't forget that we are on early out schedule today. School is out at 1:30.
Fun Friday vibes!

One of our Buffalo Point students shared the best reminder this week: “I turned my grumpy face off!”
A little positivity can go a long way—what a great way to brighten the day!
