If you were in the Smithfield area on Monday and maybe experienced traffic detours, please do not worry! All is well...the community just showed up in big numbers to walk to school!
Whether by foot, bike, or scooter, getting to South Smithfield Elementary was fun as the school celebrated its annual Walk to School Day earlier this week!
Students, parents, community members, and school officials flooded the streets to observe the event, reiterating the importance of school attendance while emphasizing strong community relationships.
Great job South Smithfield Elementary!!!
