Today is the deadline to return the 2026-27 Buckeye Education Foundation survey and have it count toward your child's class winning a party! Let us know what areas you would most like to see supported in the future.

No donation is required to participate, but the community's support of the Buckeye Education Foundation has been a part of our school district’s great success story—this is the one time of the year when we ask for support.

Buckeye Education Foundation is an independent, all-volunteer nonprofit organization that serves the entire district. It is thanks to your support that we are able to respond to district and educator requests for things like stipends for teachers and staff who provide extracurricular activities, and direct-to-educator grants to fund enriching learning experiences.

Please enjoy a selection of photos from last year's Buckeye Education Foundation grant recipients!

Here is part two of the selected Poetry Showcase Honorees! We encourage you to read them, enjoy them, and drop a note of kudos.

The honorees will be invited to present their poems at the next public meeting of the BUSD School Board on May 20 at the BUSD District Office at 7 pm, and as always, the public is encouraged to attend! The honorees also receive gift certificates from The Bookhouse and from Steve's Pizza El Dorado Hills.

We couldn't offer this community-boosting event without the generous help of these sponsors: Steve's Pizza El Dorado Hills, The Bookhouse , and Friends of the El Dorado Hills Library. Thank you! Please let them know you appreciate their support if you visit them, or write them a note online.

For National Poetry Month in April, the Buckeye Education Foundation offered its 6th Annual Poetry Showcase, open to submissions from all Buckeye district students. Thank you to all the entrants for taking your time to share your heartfelt, thoughtful, creative, and poignant entries with our Buckeye community! ALL of the entrants will get wonderful prizes, including display of your poem online in the showcase gallery, a personalized certificate, a Friends of the El Dorado Hills Library certificate for a free book from a used book sale, and more! Prizes will be distributed to all participants via their school classroom.

Thank you to our judges for taking on the difficult task of scoring each entry thoughtfully and fairly. This process has been completed, and we now have our top scorers list ready to announce! All of our BUSD poets should be proud of how they captured the theme of "Beauty All Around Us".

Over the next two posts, we will share the selected Poetry Showcase Honorees. We encourage you to read them, enjoy them, and drop a note of kudos!
