47 days of serving breakfasts and lunches is coming to an end this week. As of last Friday, they have served 50,192 lunches and 50,192 breakfasts which means we served an average of 1067 students every day.
They have served in the rain and the heat (boy howdy!) and always with a smile on their face. We hope you have enjoyed and appreciated them as much as we have enjoyed serving you.
HOWEVER - all good things must come to an end - at least until next year. The last day for summer meals at our 2 locations (BHS and UV) will be THURSDAY, July 30th. On Thursday, students will receive lunches and breakfasts for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday so come with a way of transporting meals if you are picking up for a larger group!

If you’ve missed us as much as we’ve missed you, get ready to mark your calendars!
Check the images for enrollment and open house times, as well as what the first two weeks of school look like for different ages.
See you soon!
With 170 student attendance days on the academic calendar, every day of learning matters. To help families plan ahead, we've created a USD 313 Vacation Planner that highlights major school breaks throughout the year.
The complete district calendar is always available at:
https://www.usd313.org/documents/about-us/one-page-calendars/222963
This planner is intended as a quick reference for students and families. Some listed breaks include teacher and staff work days when students are not in attendance.
As part of our ongoing efforts to review and manage district expenses, we have evaluated the usage of our toll-free phone lines. Because these numbers were rarely utilized, we have made the decision to discontinue them, effective immediately.
Please use our direct local numbers moving forward. For your convenience, the main lines for each building are listed below and remain available on our website:
Burkholder Administrative Center: 620-543-2258
Buhler High School: 620-543-2255
Buhler Grade School: 620-543-2240
Ad Astra Academies: 620-694-1043
Plum Creek Elementary: 620-662-5535
Prairie Hills Middle School: 620-662-6027
Union Valley Elementary: 620-662-4891
Transportation Center: 620-543-6829
Thank you for your support as we work to maximize our district resources.

Help us thank our child care providers, including our Shining Stars Directors and assistants, as well as our partners at Kids Collective. They each contribute to the beginning of an exceptional experience for our littlest Crusaders!
We have watched them learn, play, and grow since they were little and we are so proud of the young adults they have become. Parents and families, thank you for entrusting us to share in their journey all these years!

Enrollment for returning students is now open for the 26/27 school year!
If your child currently attends a USD 313 school, please check your email for your unique registration link. There will be one email per student if you have multiple children enrolled. No fees will be charged at this time. Those will be applied to accounts in late July.
We would love for students to be enrolled as soon as possible as we plan for an exceptional year. Thank you for helping us with this process!
