Hey. San Francisco! It's time to lace up your shoes, put on your helmets, and get ready to roll for Bike & Roll to School Week! Every year, our Safe Route to School program puts on this event to celebrate students getting around on their own power, whether by bike, wheelchair, scooter or skateboard, walking, or any other form of active transportation! This year’s celebration is April 24-28, at schools citywide.

San Francisco Safe Routes to School is a partnership of city agencies and nonprofits, led by the SFMTA, that helps make walking and bicycling to school safer and more accessible for all San Francisco children and youth and to increase the number of families who choose to walk, bicycle, take public transit, or join carpools on their way to and from school.

Bike & Roll to School Week demonstrates the joy and empowerment that comes with choosing sustainable modes of transportation and encourages students to adopt healthy habits that will benefit them for the rest of their lives. Walking, biking or rolling to school embodies the importance of being environmentally conscious and prioritizing health and well-being. And with fewer students being driven to school, pick-up and drop-off times are less congested with car traffic, and therefore safer and easier for everyone.

Join in on the fun! There are many ways for students, families and school staff to get involved:

See if your school is registered! Each school’s celebration is made possible by volunteer “Bike Champions” from the school community who are eager to share the joy of healthy and sustainable mobility with their students and families. San Francisco Safe Routes to School provides everything needed to make it a great event.

Pledge to bike or roll to school during the week! Everyone who pledges to participate will be entered into a drawing for great prizes, courtesy of Cleary Bikes and Mike’s Bikes.

You can even join the fun from inside your home or classroom by entering the Bike & Roll Art Contest. All SFUSD students are invited to enter the art contest, in which students at every age level can win prizes. Entries are due by May 10, 2023 and the grand prize winner will be featured on the BR2SW poster for 2024!
