Safe Routes To School Update
Wood Park Primary School in Commack has embraced the Safe Routes to School Program with a new walking incentive program called "Walk Safely to School Month." This month we've been encouraging students to walk to and from school with a responsible adult. Every child who walked to and from school received a bracelet to be filled with little foot charms for each walk.
The number of walkers has increased from no more than five families daily, to an average of 25! The children and their families have had a great time while getting some exercise and spending additional time together. Wood Park staff and the Youth Bureau are looking forward to planning additional events to keep families active during the colder months.
