Our Walk to School program benefits our entire community by minimizing the traffic and long drop off lines that are commonplace during the school year. Student participants have fun, get energized, and build a sense of community when walking, biking, and rolling to school, while parents gain peace of mind knowing they will be notified when their child is scanned in at the school's entrance.
