Redmond students will be biking to school with the Redmond SchoolPool program.

Throughout May, five Redmond elementary schools, Audubon, Ben Rush, Horace Mann, Norman Rockwell and Redmond El.,  along with two middle schools, Redmond and Rose Hill, will promote biking to school through the Redmond SchoolPool Program. 

The goal of Redmond SchoolPool is to reduce traffic while giving students a healthy, fun, and safe way to get to school.

Bike to School events work to create safer routes for biking and emphasize the importance of issues such as increasing physical activity among children, pedestrian safety, reducing traffic congestion, and concern for the environment.

We will promote Bike to School Month on Wednesday, May 10, nationally recognized as Bike to School Day. Be on the lookout for biking and walking kids, give them a thumbs up!

We're lucky to live in a city with great transportation amenities like sidewalks and bike lanes around our schools.  These go a long way in giving our students safe ways to travel.

The Redmond Police Department also does an great job with increased patrols in School Zones during Walk and Bike to School Month (and patrols throughout the year!). We also work proactively with our schools to get safety messages out to drivers and people who are walking and biking to educate and inform about safety in our School Zones.
