is participating in a four-week countywide initiative to reduce parent car trips by encouraging Marin students to travel by foot, bike, carpool or bus to school.
From March 19 to April 13 there will be a poster of a tree hanging in every classroom and teachers will be tracking every day students who traveled "a green way" to school by adding leaves to the tree with student tallies. Scooters, skateboards, roller blades also qualify as a green trip. A parent who parks their car and then walks part way to school with their child counts as a green trip, but only if they walk at least 7 minutes.
If you have any questions about the GO GREEN Spring challenge at Loma Verde, then please contact our Safe Routes to Schools' representatives, Michelle Camicia mcamicia@yahoo.com or Suzanne Juillard at suzanne.juillard@gmail.com.
