Week Two Celebrations
This coming week we are expecting extremely high temperatures. Thus, we ask that parents help us in the following manner:
- Water Bottles- Please continue to send water bottles with children.
- AM Transportation Changes- If your child will NOT be riding the bus in the morning please call the Transportation Department at 785-379-5820.
- PM Transportation Changes- If students will be car riders in the afternoon instead of bus riders please email Mrs. Heather (augustineh@usd450.net) and Mrs. Tanya (howbertt@usd450.net) by 3:30.
A Few additional Reminders:
- Grandparents Day- We have so many supportive Buffalo grandparents that we now celebrate Grandparents Day over a week to allow for better parking. To prepare for this event we ask grandparents to RSVP so we know you will be in attendance.
- Car Rider Signs- We really appreciate all of the families utilizing their car rider signs to help us safely load cars. We do ask that these signs stay in the front dash until we have your child in the vehicle.
- Boy Scout Visits- Next Tuesday Boy Scout leadership will be dropping into classes for 1-2 minutes to share information about joining Boy Scouts and an upcoming meeting.
With Buffalo Pride,
Mrs. Bervert

About Me
As an elementary principal I enjoy working collaboratively with staff members to support student learning. I am passionate about continuing to learn professionally, and building relationships with staff and students at Berryton Elementary. When I'm not serving at Berryton Elementary I am usually with my husband and two sons. We can be found at sporting events, cheering on Kansas State University, or just enjoying a movie at home.
