Dear Meeta~
Thank you so much for sharing this great news.
The Tuscan School community deeply appreciates the support and guidance that we received from Meadowlink for our Safe Routes to School Program. The First Step Recognition Award represents the dedication and outstanding efforts of Tuscan Safe Routes Parent Coordinators Candice Davenport and Camilla Zelevansky. Through their hard work Tuscan now has a growing number of Walking School Bus Routes with trained parent volunteer "drivers". Tuscan School is also fortunate to have a broad-base of support from Maplewood Town Council and a number of local community organizations.
Through our ongoing efforts and continued support from Tuscan's parents, students, teachers and staff our shared vision for healthier and more active children, less traffic congestion, better air quality and fewer traffic conflicts near Tuscan School will be achieved.
“The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” ― Lao Tzu
It is such an honor for Tuscan School to be recognized for taking the first step.
Thank you all for the First Step Level Recognition award and thank you for your support.
Ms. Malikah Majeed
Tuscan School Principal
