When the salamanders cross the road to breed under the moon’s glow
It’s time to put on the rain gear from head to toe
And walk or ride to school like Henry David Thoreau
Thursday, February 4 is the day to break the status quo, the car keys you shall forego
and while your at it turn off that t.v. show
It’s time to do your part and walk or roll to Peralta with the family in tow
Even carpooling or public transportation is a go, go, go
So walk, roll, carpool or take mass transit with your radiant glow
And look for the table in the yard in front of the fence where the sunflowers grow
If you arrive early there will be cool treats to bestow

In addition, Peralta’s Safe Routes to School Site Coordinator will be at Peralta the morning of February 4 recruiting to start Walking School Buses, which is a program that forms walking groups comprised of students and adults that walk to and/or from school together.
