Mark Your Calendars! October 8th is Walk, Bike, & Roll to School Day!  We are excited to invite you to participate in Walk, Bike & Roll to School Day on Wednesday, October 8th! This event is a great way for students to start their day with fresh air and physical activity while building healthy habits and promoting environmental awareness.

To ensure everyone has a fun and safe journey to school, here are some important safety tips:

For Walkers:

• Use crosswalks and follow crossing signals.
• Stay on sidewalks where available; if not, walk facing traffic.
• Make eye contact with drivers before crossing streets to ensure they see you.

For those "Rolling" to school:

• Always wear a properly fitted helmet.
• Follow traffic rules – ride in the direction of traffic, use hand signals, and obey stop signs.
• Be sure your bike or scooter is in good working condition, especially the brakes and tires.

For Drivers:

• Stay alert and avoid distractions – more students will be on foot or on bikes/scooters.
• Slow down in school zones and be prepared to stop for pedestrians.
• Drop off and pick up students only in designated areas to keep everyone safe.

Additionally, if you notice any suspicious behavior or other safety concerns during this event or at any time, please report it using our Vector Alerts system at https://psd267-wa.safeschoolsalert.com/. Your vigilance helps keep our school community safe.

We hope to see many of our students walking, biking, or rolling to school on October 8th! Let’s celebrate together by choosing healthy and safe ways to get to school!
