Walking School Buses – Start One Today!
A walking school bus is a group of children walking to school with one or more adults. The flexibility of the walking school bus makes it appealing to communities of all sizes with varying needs.

Start Simple!
Remember the program can always grow; it often makes sense to start with a small bus and see how it works. Choose a group of parents and children in your neighborhood who are interested.

Invite families who live nearby to walk.
Pick a route and take a test walk.
Decide how often the group will walk together.

Have Fun!
Walking School Buses have many benefits:

It increases supervision, safety, and fun for students who already walk.
It permits additional students to walk, introducing them to an important and easy habit.
It reduces auto traffic, particularly near schools during drop-off and pick-up times.
It creates a sense of community by getting neighbors to take turns as bus drivers.
