For those who are able, we encourage you to walk or bike to school
on
Wednesday, October 5th.
We have a place to meet! Parents Rick Hernandez and Hilary Stamper
invite you to join them at
360 Poplar Street, 7:30 a.m.
Parent organizers have invited local police to help accompany students.
Walking to school is important for many reasons: it's healthy, it's an opportunity for quality time and it reduces traffic and pollution on our streets. Please join us!
