The Sunita Williams Walk/Bike-to-School Program began in 2009, originally at The Hillside School, through a joint effort with the "Safe Routes to School" Program. Our mission is to inspire students to walk or bike to school and educate the community about the benefits -- reducing carbon emissions, boosting fitness and strengthening community.
The current program has four main components:
1. Monthly Walk/Bike-to-School Days 2019-2020
2. The Golden Sneaker Award -- This coveted trophy is awarded each month to the class that has the most walkers or bikers during the monthly walk/bike to school day.
3. Walker/Biker-of-the-Month Profiles -- Every month we profile a regular walker or biker. We ask the student to answer a few questions, take his/her picture, and post the profile in the Hillside lobby.
