| No idling, it's the law |
Ahem . . . cough, cough . . .
Do you love your lungs?
Yes?
Then join us for Walk & Roll
for Cleaner Air on Wednesday June 19th
Help reduce air pollution by:
- Walking or bicycling instead of driving a car
- Turning off the car when sitting or standing at school arrival and dismissal, banks, convenience stores, driveways, and anytime you are parked.
*with very limited exceptions
Walk or bike to school on your
own or join a walking school bus from the Train Station or DiRenzo Park.
Walking buses leave at 8 am. See "Walking School Bus" tab above for
the route map.
Students who walk or bike will receive a backpack charm. This will be the last Walk & Roll Club event of the school year so let's make it a good one!

Did you know?
- Idling fines in NJ begin at $100 for passenger vehicles and $250 for commercial vehicles.
- An idling vehicle emits 20 times more pollution than one traveling at 30 miles per hour.
- Only 10 seconds of idling uses more fuel than turning the engine on and off. If you are idling, you might as well be burning dollar bills.
- Exhaust emissions worsen asthma, bronchitis, and existing allergies
