The Stroll ‘N Roll is a project where we encourage our community to walk, bike, scooter, or skateboard to school every Tuesday. We are doing this to educate our students on air pollution and helping our Earth. We also want to decrease air pollution in our community. Air pollution is bad because it can lead to climate change and is bad for our health. We want to change that! ~Emma
