We’re excited to welcome our Buffalo Point families back for Back-to-School Night! Join us for an open house where students and families can meet their teachers, visit classrooms, and reconnect with friends as we get ready for another great school year.



After the open house, stick around for our PTA-sponsored Ice Cream Social! It’s a great chance to enjoy a treat, visit with other Buffalo Point families, and celebrate the start of a new school year together.

Joining the PTA doesn't mean you're signing up to volunteer every week or take on more than your schedule allows. A PTA membership is simply a way to support our school and the opportunities it provides for students.


Your membership helps fund family events, teacher support, student programs, and other experiences that make school more engaging and enjoyable. Whether you can volunteer often, occasionally, or not at all, your membership still makes a meaningful impact.


If you're looking for an easy way to support Buffalo Point Elementary, joining the PTA is a great place to start. Join here.

School Community Council – Call for Candidates School Community Council – Call for Candidates

Buffalo Point Elementary is accepting parent candidates for our School Community Council! This advisory group works with school staff to review data, guide academic goals, and decide how to use School LAND Trust funds to support student learning.


The council also gives input on digital safety, school policies, and other important topics that impact our school. Parents serve a two-year term and attend 4–6 meetings per year.


The candidacy form (attached) is due by September 2. Elections, if needed, will be held on September 4 at the school.
