Walk or Bike to School 

School is back in session for most area schools this week, and Norman-Mahnomen Public Health is encouraging families to walk or bike to school in the mornings. Kim Myers of Norman Mahnomen Public Health says walking or biking to school has many benefits. 

However, Myers says if your child is walking or biking to school, they need to do so safely. 

Parents with questions regarding proper child safety practices should contact Norman-Mahnomen Public Health.
