Why host a Walk to School Day event?
- Walk to School Day is a fun and easy way to explore interest, build enthusiasm, and encourage students to walk to school.
- When kids walk to school, they improve their health, gain independence and confidence, and arrive at school ready to learn.
- Walk to School Day is a great energizing event, letting you connect your efforts with those of other students around the state, country, and world!
