Community Walkabout
In an effort to ensure that our students have safe walking routes during our K-3 Neighborhood schools transition, the Quincy School District, Grant County Health, The City of Quincy and other local organizations have teamed to perform a “walking audit” of our neighborhoods near our elementary schools. The information collected from this audit will be used in a variety of ways, including but not limited to, identifying the safest walking routes for students, identifying potential hazards around those walking routes, prioritizing needs for improvement and providing data for the City as it builds its comprehensive plan. We invite you to join us at either Mt. View Elementary or Pioneer Elementary on February 13, 2012 at 3:30 pm to help us collect information.
