Walking School Bus assistants and substitute volunteers needed!       


What is a Walking School Bus?

A Walking School Bus (WSB) is a safe, fun, and healthy way for children to walk to school together with the guidance of caring adult volunteers. Students get fresh air and exercise, while families enjoy peace of mind knowing their children are supervised along the way.

How It Works:

  • A group of children meet at a set location and walk to school together on a planned route.

  • Adult volunteers (parents, staff, or community members) walk with the group, helping keep everyone safe and together.

  • The walk usually takes about 20–30 minutes, depending on the route.

  • The WSB runs rain or shine (except in unsafe weather conditions).

Volunteer Details:

  • Volunteers can commit to one or more days per week, or serve as a substitute when a leader is unavailable.

  • No experience is needed—just a willingness to walk and supervise students.

  • A brief training will be provided.

  • Time commitment is minimal, but the positive impact is huge!

Why Volunteer?
This is a low-commitment, high-impact way to support students and school safety. Plus, it’s a fun way to connect with kids and the school community!
