We can’t wait for parents, students and staff to use the new and improved SchoolZone, #EPSB’s main online tool for communicating with families. New to #EPSB? You’ll get a SchoolZone account once your child starts school.

@timquerengesser @WalkcastRadio To be honest, I'm not sure our school ever really had a problem with walking. Most of our students are in the area, and since we live in a walkable neighbourhood (Old Strathcona), I think kids are used to walking places.

[King Edward Elementary School Council @kingedwardelem]

@timquerengesser @WalkcastRadio I think we could find someone. Would you like to speak to an administrator or someone on parent council? We even have "walking schoolbuses," so maybe a parent involved in one of those?

[King Edward Elementary School Council @kingedwardelem]

@timquerengesser We also did a survey earlier in the year, and out of the people who responded we found only 19% of the students were driven to school. The vast majority, 65%, walked to school. We're proud of that!

@timquerengesser One thing that we’re looking to address in the Strathcona renewal is how to make walking to school safer. @conradnobert is leading the charge on that front, and the city has been very receptive so far.
