Columbian Walking Club Starts Soon - Sign Up Today!
Tuesdays and Thursdays October 3 - October 24, 2024
8:00 - 8:35 am
Students who move in the morning are better learners throughout their day; it’s brain science!
How does my child participate? Take a photo of the QR code, shown here, to enroll today! If you need additional support, sign up will be available in the office at Columbian, and additional information will be shared at March conferences.

Can parents help? Yes! We need 3 parents for each walking club to supervise safety, tally student laps, and safely walk the group to breakfast upon completion at 8:35 am. Please sign up when you enroll your child!

What if the weather doesn’t allow for a Walking Club?
If the temperature is below 20 degrees (including wind chill), or it is raining/snowing the walking club will be canceled. Notifications will be sent to the email or posted to the Columbian Facebook page (@OPSColumbianElementarySchool).
What’s the enrollment deadline?
Please enroll by Friday, Sept. 27, 2024 in order to participate. A confirmation email will be sent to all parents on October 1 to ensure we are ready to roll. No late registrations will be allowed due to using student badges to track the laps.
