Hooray for the dozens of Weathersfield Elementary students, parents, and staff who turned out this morning for another successful “walk’n’roll” event. Thanks too to @thousandoakspd and @cityofthousandoaks crossing guards who ensured this was a safe and fun event for everyone, and to CVUSD trustee @powell4cvusd for her good ideas on widening the walk’n’roll effort.

Studies have found that walking or riding to school not only makes for healthier kids, but also correlates with better academic performance. Contact your PTA if you’d like to start a walk’n’roll effort at your kids’ school!

“Walking school buses” - groups of kids walking and/or riding to school - not only promote better health and academic performance but also make for safer streets.

Parents: Students who walk or ride bikes to school do better.

There are walk’n’roll events scheduled TODAY at Banyan and EARThS Magnet schools. Talk with your principal and PTA about a similar program at your kids’ school.
