National Bike/Walk to School Day is a great time to see if walking or biking school buses would be a good fit for your child's school all year round. Helena school buses do not pick up kids who live within a 1-mile radius -- Walking/biking school buses can be a healthy, safe alternative that reduces car traffic around schools and have been shown to improve attendance in classrooms.
