Walk & Ride to School — Friday, October 9, 2026

Thank you, Eagles, for walking, rolling, biking, busing, and carpooling to school!

Walk & Ride to School Day celebrates being active on the way to and from school to increase safety and decrease traffic congestion around school. Walking, rolling, biking, busing, and carpooling benefit our community in many ways:

• Students get more exercise and show up to school ready to learn.
• Reduced vehicle emissions mean better air quality around schools.
• Less traffic means safer streets for everyone.
• Sharing the walk with your classmates builds a stronger sense of community.

Thank you to the City of Kirkland Transportation Division for donating this year's $400 Kirkland Bicycle gift card prize, and to all of our volunteers!
