We're giving away $750 in PE Equipment for Active Transportation Month!

That's right, October is Active Transportation month and we're handing out prizes to Member schools. All you need to do is get your students moving - if they can walk/ride to or from school, you earn points. If they live too far away but can put the steps in at lunch time, you earn points!

HOW IT WORKS:

Schools will earn:

--> 1 Point per Student, Per Day. For students who require bussing, but participate in 20 minutes of physical activity at lunchtime.

At the end of each week in October (or at the end of the month!), homeroom teachers or the PE teacher will tally up the total points for the week and submit them through our Google Form. The school with the highest percentage of participation per capita, will win the grand prize.
