Bike-Safety
Your child’s 4th or 5th grade PE Class participated in the bike safety unit in the fall during: September 17th-October 2nd, 2019
The Let's Go Bike Safey curriculum is new unit and is generously sponsored by the Cascade Bicycle Club. This unit included 30 bikes and helmets, plus a basic curriculum to teach kids to, “Bike safe and bike smart.”
I encouraged all students who own their own bike helmet to bring their helmets to school. See attached document above on how to adjust your child’s helmet.
I CAN store personal, labeled bike helmets, but I do NOT have room to store individual bikes, so if they do come with their bike, they need to bring a bike lock and lock it on the playground bike rack. If your child is a 4th or 5th grade student, your child can ride their bike to school on these days as long as they obtain a bicycle safety permit from Mrs. Betsy Hill in the office.
I NEED PARENT VOLUNTEERS FOR THIS PROGRAM NEXT FALL, 2020 TO BE SUCCESSFUL.
This program runs most successfully with a minimum of 3-5 volunteers per day class; 1 to help kids who are learning how to ride (learners) and 2 to assist teacher with running the bike safety stations. Please LOOK FOR THE SCHEDULE below and on page 2 of the Volunteer Form link on the right for the days you can volunteer. I really need parents on all days if possible.
Weather permitting; the lessons will take place outside on the black top behind the school during your child's PE program. If it is rainy or stormy the bike unit will take place in the gym.
If you're interested, please call me or email me with the dates and times you can volunteer and/or write your name below the class/date/time you can volunteer in the table that will be posted below shortly.
