The Franklin Green Team is excited to announce that Franklin will be participating in the district-wide BIKE IT WALK IT WEEK, May 7-11, and in Santa Monica’s CAR-FREE FRIDAY! Let’s all try to walk, bike, bus, carpool, and scoot to school for the whole week, and get a surprise on Friday, May 11! Get your blood pumping, get your body and mind ready for the day, and save a little CO2 from the atmosphere! BONUS: FREE BUS PASSES FOR THE WEEK OF MAY 7-11 FOR SMMUSD STUDENTS! PICK ONE UP IN THE OFFICE!
Even if you can’t walk the whole way, consider parking and walking a block or two. Even a very short walk gets your body moving and gives you and your children a moment in the sunshine together. It also lowers traffic congestion around the school, making it safer for everyone!
If you have any questions OR ARE INTERESTED IN STARTING A WALKING “SCHOOL BUS,” please contact Amy Woodson-Boulton, Green Team/Bike it Walk it coordinator (woodson.boulton@gmail.com).
