Walking School Bus "Drivers" Needed


Hello, friends and neighbors,

The Safe Routes to School Committee is working to get "walking school buses" going on a regular basis in Rodgers Forge. You might remember seeing this on the first Wednesday last October where adults shepherded groups of kiddos along proscribed routes. The idea is to encourage walking to school by having big visible groups walking on a regular basis. 

Would you consider being a walking school bus "driver" once or twice a month? 

In March, we aim to have walking school buses on the first and third Wednesdays (2/6, 2/20). Then after spring break, the plan calls for walking school buses every Wednesday (starting 4/10) through the end of the year (6/12). The job would entail shepherding kiddos along the routes and delivering them to school, like so many of you already do anyway.

The idea would be that you start at the end of the route, which might involve a little backtracking from your house.
