Santa Rita Elementary School

The GreenTown Los Altos WoW! (Walk or Wheel) Program inspires kids to walk or ride to school while positively impacting their well-being. Santa Rita encourages all students (and staff!) to walk, ride or carpool to school on Wednesdays.

 

Walk to School Day was founded in 1997 as a way to bring community leaders and children together to build awareness for communities to be more walkable. Whether a community's concern is safer and improved streets, healthier habits, or the environment, Walk to School Day events are aimed at bringing forth permanent change to encourage a more walkable, bikeable America ñ one community at a time.

Santa Rita has a tradition of setting up Walking School Buses on International Walk to School Day. Parents sign up to lead a bus and students walk as a group on this special day.
