Go Green!
The Green Ways to School campaign is a great way to have fun,
do the planet a good turn.
If you live close-by
• Walk or bike
If you live too far away
• Carpool with one or more other families to school
• Park about ¼ mile at a secure location and walk the rest of the way
• Use the bus (if available)
If you must drive all the way
• Drive carefully and watch for children
• Turn off your engine – don’t idle.
See how you can find your Green Way to School.
Green Schools in Marin
Marin Safe Routes to Schools (SR2S) has introduced a new evaluation tool to let each of our schools know how they are doing in increasing the number of green trips to school (walk, bike, carpool or bus). The new Report Card evaluates each school based on the percentage of green trips from our student surveys, plus extra credit is given for their level of involvement in the program. This allows each school to strive to achieve a Green status or higher through regular walk to school days, promoting SchoolPool and other encouragement techniques. Those schools that offer dedicated bus service are rated at a higher scale than schools that do not have that service.
Those schools that have achieved Green status of 55% or above are:
