BUIST ACADEMY FAST FACTS

The Buist Academy Foundation serves as the parent-teacher organization (PTO) for Buist Academy. There are no fees to join. All parents are a part of the Buist Foundation. We appreciate your support through generous donations and acts of service. 

Your help is needed for the 2023-2024 school year. Take an active role in the school community, and consider joining a Buist Academy Foundation committee. More volunteer opportunities are coming soon. 

Click here for more information about committees. 

Our goal is to dismiss students in a safe and timely manner. We have a number dismissal system. Please make sure your child's number is visible through your driver's side windshield.

The car rider line will start to move faster after the first week or two of school. All students should be picked up by 3:20.

Please respect fellow Buist families and the surrounding community by following the correct car rider procedures.

• East Bay St. to George St.

• George St. to Anson St.

• Do Not Block the George St. 3-way stop or the Menotti St. entrance.

• Review the car rider map. Following this route helps to ensure the safety of our school community and gives respect to our neighbors by not blocking driveways on George St. or intersections.
