Boise-Eliot Elementary School
Boise Eliot is a Safe Routes to School (SR2S) pilot school that will
participate in ongoing
walk+bike programs provided by parents,
other community members, community leaders and local, state, and
federal governments. These programs are aimed to improve the health and
well-being of children by
enabling and encouraging them to walk and bicycle to school.Boise Eliot will also have programs that examine conditions around schools
and facilitate the planning,
development, and implementation of projects and activities that improve
and reduce traffic and air pollution in the vicinity of the school.
These
programs will help to make bicycling and walking to school a safer and
more appealing transportation alternative thus encouraging a healthy
and active lifestyle from an early age.
The pilot schools will serve
as examples of what can be accomplished for the expansion of SR2S into
more schools in the future.
