Linwood E. Howe Elementary School
Join the Dragon Wagon and help your child’s class walk their way to victory!
Next Walk to School Days: February 2, 9, 16, 23
Traffic at Lin Howe can be challenging, so we encourage families to walk or bike to school when possible. A short walk to school will benefit you, your children, your school and your community. Plus the extra one-on-one time is extra special.
To help make this fun and easy, Lin Howe presents a weekly Walk to Day School Day. Beginning Friday October 6 and continuing each Friday thereafter, families can participate by joining a meetup group or walk on their own. Participating students will be have their “shoe tags” scanned and help their class to victory! Meetup sites are at Carlson Park and Ince/Carson (East side of school, behind Amazon). You do not have to to be at the starting point. Students can also join the Dragon Wagon en route. Wait for the group to come to you at your nearest corner on the route and join in!
Have to drive? No problem. Please park 3 blocks away and ease the traffic at Lin Howe. There is ample parking in the neighborhoods to the West (past Duquesne along Braddock or on Lincoln or Madison for example.
Volunteers Needed! If you are available to assist with walk to school days (guiding kids, tracking participants, promoting), we need you! Please contact Emily Sacchetti or more info.

Take the 3 Block Challenge
We encourage parents to take the 3 Block Challenge by parking and walking 3 blocks to school at least once a week. Parking just a few blocks away goes a long way towards reducing traffic and pollution around Linwood Howe while adding some extra activity to your child’s day. There is plenty of street parking (highlighted in purple) on streets like Braddock, Lincoln or Madison. (please be mindful of all parking restrictions).
