A Cary Elementary Tradition...

​We hope to see as many Cary Elementary students walk to school with us on this day, even if you do not usually do so!  We are so fortunate to have walkable options to our school, and this is a great opportunity to celebrate our community.  In previous years, more than 100 students have turned out.  You won’t want to miss it! Check out past Walk to School Events from 2017, 2018, and 2019.

National-Scale Impact

"A national event can be an amazing impetus for change in communities. Through annual surveys, local Walk & Roll to School Day coordinators across the country have told us how a simple one-day event has 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."
