Today is National Walk to School Day. Our School is the recipient of the Safe Routes to School Planning Grant which will help our School plan safe travel for our pedestrians and cyclists. Walking to school allows for a little bit of exercise before starting the day and improves our children's learning. Our parents should be on the lookout for a survey to fill out and help us continue in planning for improvements that we hope will increase walking, cycling, and safe traffic around our school.
