National Walk & Bike to School Day

October 8
Students walking to J.A. Rogers Elementary in 2015. They hold a sign and balloons celebrating Walk to School Day.

Schools across the United States celebrate National Walk & Roll to School Day each fall with walk or bike to school parades, special safety lessons, and more. But the movement doesn't stop there! According to the National Center for Safe Routes to School, local Walk & Roll to School Day coordinators across the country report that simple one-day events have led to great changes such as long-term walking and rolling programs, new sidewalks and pathways, and needed policy changes at schools and in communities. Improvements that normally take a long time to institute can happen quickly when city officials walk or roll to school with students and see firsthand what needs to be done.
