Paige Elementary is having a Walk & Roll to School Day π² TOMORROW Friday, October 14th!
What does Walk & Roll to School Mean?
Walk: Use your feet to walk to school! πΆπ½ββοΈπΆπΎββοΈπΆββοΈπΆπΏββοΈπΆπΏββοΈπΆπΌββοΈ
Roll: Typically includes human-powered things on wheels such as bikes and scooters π² π΄ π΄πΎπ΄πΏββοΈ
Why Walk or Roll to School?
Itβs fun! Remember the thrill of riding a bike for the first time or walking or rolling to school? Thereβs a feeling of joy and independenceβa sense of adventureβthat doesnβt fade. Of course, there are many other benefits to walking and biking to school too!
Walk & Roll to School Day will also teach students about the health and environmental benefits of walking and biking. Some of these benefits include keeping young people healthy and strong as well as teaching them how to safely navigate streets in their neighborhood. Quality time with parents and friends can boost mood and connection as they travel to and from school! β€οΈ Plus, research has shown that morning activity can help students do better in school. π« βοΈ
On 10/14, if your child is unable to walk or roll π² πΆπ½ββοΈto school and they must take the bus π, they will participate on our school grounds when they arrive to Paige! πΌ
Schenectady PD π will have patrol driving through the Walk and Roll route to ensure safety!
There are parent volunteers that will be present at the two route locations to assist with the walking/biking routes!

Students who are chronically absent are missing critical instruction time & are at the greatest risk of falling behind & dropping out of school. What does it mean to be chronically absent? Missing 18 days of school in a school year is considered chronic absence. #projectbehere
