Walk to School Day is October 1st, 2025!

Walk to School Day is a chance for us to promote healthy habits, foster family and community support, and bring attention to the safety concerns of neighborhoods so that children have safe routes to school.

In 2024, over 40 schools took part, and over 10,000 students, parents, and community members participated in a community walk to jumpstart our student's day! We are so excited to see so many more of you back this year! This year, we're encouraging community members and elected officials to join a walk or cheer on students along a route in their own neighborhood.
