Walking School Bus
The Walking School Bus is a great way for students to travel to school. Basically, it’s a group of students who regularly walk to school together, often led by adult volunteers. A Walking School Bus provides adult supervision, safety in numbers, physical activity, a great social atmosphere and fun on the way to school! Students arrive energized and ready for the day. A Cycling School Bus is a variation with bikes.
Active & Safe Routes to School can assist your group in organizing a Walking School Bus. Contact us for a meeting or presentation.
When you register your Walking School Bus, you’ll receive a starter kit, including:
The Walking School bus guide- “I Walk” stickers for all participating students
- Information on Making Tracks: Walking (or Cycling), Active & Safe Routes to School’s safety skills program that will teach students the skills and confidence to walk (or wheel) in their communities safely.
