Walk & Roll to School Day is Wednesday 10/8

Join the fun on Walk and Roll to School Day Wednesday, October 8th, 2014 - 7:45-8:10 @ the picnic tables

Bonus: If you're able to help cheer families on before school on Wednesday, contact Sofia (szander@gmail.com).

The students, parents, and teachers at Malcolm X will celebrate International Walk & Roll to School Day this year on Wednesday, October 8th. This is a great opportunity to celebrate our health, the environment, and our school spirit.  We’re encouraging every student to participate.

What’s going on? Stop by the picnic tables for:

*A school-wide mode chart to see how we get to school

*Giveaways for kids

*and more!

If you live nearby: Meet up with neighbors and friends to walk or ride to school together. Allow plenty of time for walking and enjoying the morning festivities. Or just walk or bike with your child on your own schedule.

If you live farther away:

*Bike with your child.

*Take the bus with your child and walk from the bus stop.

*Carpool with another family. Spare the environment and reduce morning stress for yourself: connect with other families who live in your neighborhood.

*Park and walk

Supporting our bellies and our school with Farmigo

Order fresh, local, organic food online through Farmigo and pick it up on the MX playground each Wednesday.

Farmigo is a flexible CSA, which allows you to order only what you want (fruit, veggies, milk, eggs, cheese, meat, bread, pantry items) or you can get a traditional CSA produce box. There's no ongoing commitment, or sign up fee, which makes it great for busy schedules, and makes it fun for our kids to try different and hard to find produce like Kohlrabi. 

Best of all, ten percent of weekly proceeds go directly to the MX PTA, and last year we raised $2,500 for MX! This year we hope to go bigger!

Email MX parent Becky Matthews to sign up or learn more.
