Walk to School Day is October 6th. Thousands of students walk and roll to school that morning from all over the country. Locally, we call this “Walk ‘n Roll to School Day” to include both walkers, bike riders, and students who use assistive devices.

Urbana elementary schools have participated in this event since 2004! The goal of the event is to promote physical activity and to teach pedestrian safety skills.

Families who are interested in walking/biking to school should check with their building for specific routes.
