Buxton Unites: A Summer Celebration of Arts, Alumni, and Action
Friday, August 9 – Sunday, August 11
We are excited to host alumni for a memorable weekend as we celebrate the spirit of Buxton! Join us for Buxton Unites: A Summer Celebration of Arts, Alumni, and Action from Friday, August 9th to Sunday, August 11th. Re-engage with all that Buxton is while connecting with fellow alumni and friends.
We’re thrilled to highlight and introduce John Barrengos, our new Head of School, to the community. This will be an exciting opportunity to meet and interact with John. Get ready for both on- and off-campus festivities, community updates, and more! Highlights of the weekend include art-making, work program activities, campus tours, and our signature Buxton family-style dinner. Whether you want the true boarding experience by staying in our dorms or prefer nearby lodging, there will be options for everyone!
Members of the Buxton Board of Trustees and the Buxton School Alum Association (BSAA) Board will be present. We’ll have some swag, and the BSAA will also have some limited swag available with their new logo! For a full list of attendees, see below.

On campus dorms (shared bedrooms & bathrooms). The cost is $100 per BED for the entire weekend (whether you stay two nights, or one). All beds are twin beds. There is a discounted price for young alums and children ($60). If you are bringing children, feel free to bring sleeping bags or pack ’n play, and the kids may sleep in your room without incurring a fee as they will not be using a campus bed. We will not split up families, but rooms are shared.
Self-supplied tent: Bring your own tent and camp out on the soccer field. No charge!
Local hotels: Hotel List: https://buxtonschool.org/local-hotel-listing/ (And don’t forget options such as Airbnb and VRBO).
