Virtual Walk to School Day Registration 2020

Schools look quite a bit different this year. Whether your students are returning in person or starting the year with virtual learning, physical activity is as important as ever. WALKING is one of the easiest ways to be active every day. Starting the day with a WALK can help students be alert and ready to learn, either virtually or in the classroom. Bring Virtual Walk to School Day to your Orange County School!

We can help you plan a Virtual Walk to School Day, either for distance learning or in-person learning scenarios. Please answer the questions below to help us know more about your school. This registration form should take about five minutes to complete. The link to digital materials (planning guide, flyers, social media templates, participant certificates, and more!) will be provided after you press "Submit."
