North Star Elementary went all out for Earth Day this year with an incredible Walk & Roll to School celebration! 🌎💚
Students, families, and staff gathered at Harvest Park before walking, biking, and scootering to school together, having a fun, active, and eco-friendly start to the day. Around 160 people joined in, including many parents and family members!
A big thank you to our Board Chair and North Star teacher, Jerry Huegel, for sharing this celebration!
Come together as a community and hop on your bike to explore the city’s newest traffic infrastructure updates. This guided ride will be a fun, active way to experience the changes firsthand, including new bikeway features designed to improve safety and connectivity across Bend.
