International Walk to School Day by walking to school on

Wednesday, October 7

All Students will receive FREE BREAKFAST  

In neighborhoods all around the world, the first week in October is the week to walk to school!

It's an international week that raises awareness about the positive ways walking to school helps children and communities.

As our school grows we have less room for parking. If you can walk, bike or golf cart your children to school please consider the benefits to your health and the parking problem.

The goal of Walk to School Day is to encourage more adults and children to walk to school together to raise awareness about:

  • The importance of teaching children safe walking behaviors, such as how to cross streets, and how to select safe routes to school.
  • How easy and enjoyable walking is! Adults and children spend healthy, active time together doing the world's simplest exercise – walking.
  • Taking specific steps to create more walkable communities such as advocating for more crosswalks, sidewalks, crossing guards and better driver behavior.
  • We will be collecting surveys about the route to school that the city will use to make sure they are safe for walking and biking.

Costa Mesa Police officers will walk with the children on the designated routes and pass out stickers.    

Students and parents will gather at any of these locations before walking to school:

1 Luddington Paularino (Biking only w/helmet) 7:15

2. St. Clair Bear – 7:15  

3. Santiago Velasco – 7:25

4. El Camino Mendoza (Office parking lot)–7:30

5. Magellan Velasco – 7:30
