Back to School, Bike and Walk to School

The Walk and Roll Club is back!

Start the school year off right by joining the Netcong Walk and Roll Club.

On Walk and Roll Wednesdays, students and parents are encouraged to leave the car at home and take walk or ride a bike to school . . .

  • for health
  • for the environment
  • for safer streets
Netcong Elementary students that walk or bike to school on these days will receive a backpack charm. Students can walk from home or join one of two walking buses anywhere along a designated route. See the tab at the top of this page for the walking school bus map. Meet at the Netcong Train Station or DiRenzo Park at 8:00am and join your friends to walk together.
