Walking School Bus to run on Wednesdays

Departure time – Leaving from City Park at 7:30 am

A walking school bus is a group of children (“riders”) walking to school with one or more adults (“drivers”) along a pre-planned route to school. Walking school buses promote a healthy choice of walking, reinforce pedestrian safety, and are a supervised social activity for children.

The Superior walking school bus will run (“walk”) on Wednesdays. Plans are for the walking school bus to run May 5, 2021, through May 19, 2021. The bus will leave, from the City Park band shelter, PROMPTLY at 7:30 in order to arrive at the school between 7:45 and 7:55 am.

The bus will travel along the walk and bike lane on the south side of 6th Street to Park Street. From there it will continue along the Safe Routes to School sidewalk and end at the Superior Elementary School. Children can join the bus at any point along the route, and parents are welcome to walk along. Children that need help crossing the street should wait for the bus to get to them before crossing.

Wheels (bikes, skateboards, and scooters) are encouraged on the walk and bike lane; however, there are no “wheels” on the Walking School Bus.
