 Walk and Roll to School
September 30 - October 4

 

Bellevue SchoolPool is a program that encourages families and students to explore sustainable transportation options for their commute to and from school and alleviate congestion at drop-off and pickup times and locations. During the campaign, students and families are encouraged to walk, bike, carpool or take the bus to and/or from school. 

This fall, the campaign is centered around International Walk to School Day on Wednesday, Oct. 2, but SchoolPool encourages students to try a new way to school any time during week!
