Walk this Way — Start a Walking Club

Physical Activity Participation

Granite Valley Middle School expanded their success with walking on the outside track before school, including staff, and taking daily attendance. During inclement days, hallways in the schools are utilized and marked for 1 mile.

How do you plan to make this Play last during the school year and beyond?

Students love the opportunity to be able to walk outside or in before school starts and not have to go directly into their homeroom after breakfast. Staff joining in encourages the students to participate.
