Safe routes to school

School safety is a major concern for parents, students, school districts, and the City alike. The Auburn School District, working with an advisory committee, has established a safe walking area for each elementary and middle school based on the presence of sidewalks, walking paths, and safe neighborhood streets, as well as the availability of safe street crossings and the traffic conditions in the surrounding neighborhoods.

All routes within the safe walking areas are designated as 'Safe Routes to School'. Occasionally, individual schools will notify parents and students of preferred walking routes within each area.

Please contact your school district directly for the most up-to-date information on Safe Routes to School.
