Buhler, Kansas 2014-2015 Academic Year ABOUT BUHLER USD 313 The community of Buhler USD 313 has a long-standing tradition of support for education. Discipline, dedication and diligence--these standards are reflected in the educational system. Buhler USD 313 was established in 1965 when seven individual districts in the area unified to provide better education opportunities. Elementary schools include Union Valley (K-5); Plum Creek Grade School (K-5) and Buhler Grade School (K-5). All students in grades six, seven and eight attend Prairie Hill Middle School, with grades nine through twelve attending Buhler High School. The Burkholder Administrative Center is located in Buhler. The definition of a “quality” educational program continues to evolve in Buhler USD 313. Organizationally, we encourage continuous improvement of our educational mission--to provide for each of our students a quality, equitable educational opportunity and a comprehensive foundation for the life-long learning process. By placing greater emphasis on the intrinsic value of learning, redefining roles and responsibilities in relation to the organization and restructuring our use of time and resources, every facet of our school district’s operation embraces standards based on current performance data.
