Walk to School Day was created in order to raise awareness of the importance of improved, safer and more accessible streets, less traffic, and reduced air pollution in communities across the USA. It also aims to promote healthier habits and active lifestyle from an early age. Check out a few pictures of how DRWES participated in Walk to School Day!

FRED is a fun and educational program that helps strengthen family bonds and helps support early literacy development. Our target groups are District 4K classes and the Montessori Classes at Manning Early Childhood Center.
With the help of Mrs. Gloria Johnson, CCSD FRED Project Coordinator, literacy bags will go home each Monday of the week and return to school the following Monday. Literacy bags will include two books and a poem activity. 📚
