This morning, students across the District participated in Winter Walk to School Day. At Gibbs Elementary, Mayor Kim Norton, the Rochester Police Department, community members, and family members joined us in our walk and effort to thank our neighbors for keeping students safe as they walk to and from school. #walk2schoolday #mnwalks #rochmn #saferoutes2school
