St. Albans City School Board Meeting

6:00 PM Thursday Evening

Location in the School Library







Walk to School Day Results
Temperatures were relatively warm in the mid 50s F with almost no wind - great for getting to school by foot or bicycle. 116 students and 17 adults walked or biked into school on Wednesday.  Slightly fewer students appear to be walking to school this year on walk to school days compared to last year.  Is there an explanation for this phenomenon?
