Changes at "Bicycle Riders Club"
Body
- -Short Description (for the ballot):
- +Short Description:
- +A Bike Club for students who want to enjoy bike riding with others and make new friends as well. We will take them to the Blackstone River Bikeway where they will be able to ride with other students for about an hour and a half after school. This project will also help purchase bikes for those students to use. We will also have a repair station that would benefit all students.
- -Long description of the details (1-2 paragraphs):
- +The details:
- +Funding this project will create a bike club and buy bike racks, repair kits, bikes to borrow, and have a chaperone to take students in the bike club cycling in the Fall and in the Spring. The people who would benefit are people who already ride bikes, wanting to ride bikes, and even people who are running late and need to get to school faster. We think this is a good idea because this would improve our students’ health, and maybe improve tardiness/attendance.
- -This project is necessary/ this project will address these problems....
- +Our Bike Club would help others make friends with other bike, scooter or skateboard riders because they’ll be able to connect with something that they both like. This connects to Strategic Objective 3, Increase the number of stakeholders who demonstratively engage in their child’s/their own education, because more students would be involved in their education. Interest would grow on both sides. An increase of interest in education would lead towards higher graduation rates.
