What is a walking school bus?

A walking school bus is a group of children walking to school with one or more adults. It's that simple. 

Walking School Buses help schools with transportation gaps for students who live within the walk zones. The National Center for Safe Routes to School created a fantastic resource: How to Start a Waking Bus at Your School. This step-by-step guide outlines how to plan and successfully have a walking school bus for your school, and includes proven tools, tops, and real-world resources for a successful start of the program.
