Wednesday, October 7th is this year's National Walk to School Day, and we are hoping to have many Colby students once again take part in a supervised walk from the Colby Fire Station to our school buildings.
We are offering three ways for students to participate:
1) Parents who normally drop off students at school could drop their child off at the Colby Fire Station on Wednesday, October 7th between 7:40 am and 8:00 am. We plan to walk to school starting around 8:10 am, and we estimate arriving at school by 8:45 am. No one participating in the walk will be marked tardy or absent because of their participation in this event.
2) All students riding on district buses will be allowed to get off the bus at the Colby Fire Station and join in with the group of students leaving from that location to walk to school. Buses on that morning will make a loop past the fire station, and students will have the option to ride to school after it stops at the Colby Fire Station if they choose, or join the group walking.
3) Students who drive/ride to school or ride with siblings to school can take a bus from the back of the HS to the Colby Fire Station - Mr. Wozniak will help organize/supervise these students.
We would love to have a great number of students participate in this event, but in the end, it is an optional activity.
If you have any additional questions, please contact Superintendent Patrick Galligan at 715-223-2301 (ext. 1) or at [email protected].
