October is International Walk to School Month
The City of Redmond has provided calendars for students to track their mode of transportation to school for the month and the school will be covering this issue during PACE time. All qualifying trips to school should be recorded on student calendars which are due at the end of the month.
For each calendar returned, our PTSA will receive $10 from the City. As students walk/ride the bus/bike to school, please remind your students of safety along our roads and please drive slowly and carefully in the neighborhood. Students don't always look for cars doing the unexpected (U-turns, sudden increases in speed to make a light, etc.).
