News and Notes
Buffalo Families,
We so enjoyed seeing lots of you for Breakfast with Buffalos the last two mornings. Special thanks to our PTO for organizing this event and to Eric Deitcher for assisting with parking today. A few notes as we look to next week:
- Assistance for Students Leaving after Valentines Parties- Families that are interested in taking their students home immediately following the Valentine parties on Monday afternoon can fill out the form below. Families that do this can sign their student out in the classroom and skip the main office.
- ICARE Food Pantry- Sixth Grade is hosting a school-wide food drive for the ICARE Food Pantry. We will collect non-perishable food from February 6- February 24. Please have your child turn in a non-perishable food item(s) to the collection box in their classroom. We thank you for helping us return the love and support shown to us by our community.
- Parent Teacher Conferences- We are excited to see you, and we value your time. The partnership between school and home is paramount for every child. If student(s) need to attend with the adult, there will be quiet activities provided in the hallway for the student(s) to do independently. Students attending will need to stay with their adult or outside that classroom door. Thank you for being respectful of everyone's time and collaboration during Parent Teacher Conferences.
It's Great to Be a Buffalo,
Mrs. Bervert

Kindergarten Pre-Enrollment
Berryton's annual Kindergarten Pre-enrollment is scheduled for Tuesday, April 11. Incoming families will sign up for a time to visit the school and meet our kindergarten team. If you have a child that will be attending kindergarten in the fall of 2023, please email Mrs. Tanya Howbert to register your child promptly. She will need to know the following:

To attend kindergarten your child must be 5 on or before August 31, 2023.
Kindergarten Pre-Enrollment emails will be sent home after Spring Break to all registered incoming kindergartner's families. Please read all information carefully and fill out all links completely. In addition to completing links we will also need the following documents emailed to Mrs. Tanya Howbert prior to April 11:
- Proof of Residency i.e. Utility bill in your name, building and/or purchase agreement, or a rental agreement copy
- Copy of a legal birth certificate (state certified copy)

By completing all the links and emailing the additional documentation requested it will make Kindergarten pre-enrollment a quicker process.

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.
