Winter Walk to School Day

More than 50 Great River students and parents participated in national Winter Walk To School Day on Wednesday, February 5th. Parent volunteers assisted students coming from the south of school with crossing Pierce Butler Road, and joined students coming from the north of school who walked from Gabe's on the Park at Energy Park Drive and Lexington. Kids who walk to school get valuable physical activity and a fun social time with friends, and experience lower stress and an increased ability to focus at school.
