Poly Drive will celebrate International Walk to School Day with our Annual Walk and Bike to School-A-Thon and Walking School Bus! For those who are new to the concept, a walking school bus is a group of students walking to school as a group, under the watch of adults/parents and older students. Younger students are encouraged to “board” the bus at any point along its route to school.

The Poly Drive Walking School Bus will operate in the morning only, Monday, Oct. 2 through Friday, Oct. 6, beginning at the northwest corner of Poly & Hoover at approximately 7:55am. The route will proceed toward campus on the north side of Poly Drive.

Another Walking School Bus route has been started this year, with a cohort meeting at Colton and Rehburg, and another at the corner of Rimrock and Rehburg, both at 7:50. They will meet up at Poly and Rehburg at 7:55, and proceed to the campus along Poly.

Log sheets were sent home in last week’s Wednesday Watch. Students tally their miles, as well as parent miles, and top mileage logs will win prizes.
