 Have you met Captain Kingsley - he doesn't fly, he walks.

Dunwoody schools actively participate in Walk to School Days with the first one happening this Wednesday morning therefore please encourage your children to walk to school and then be extra vigilant when on the roads. 

KINGSLEY WALKS FROM THE ACE HARDWARE AT 7 AM

AUSTIN, VANDERLYN AND DUNWOODY ELEMENTARY ARE ALL WALKING BUT I DO NOT HAVE SPECIFICS, PLEASE CHECK WITH SCHOOL.

CHESNUT HAS FOUR ROUTES:

Students may walk directly down the sidewalk on Peachford all they way to North Peachtree, cross Peachford at the corner crossing, and go to the front entrance. ** DO NOT cross Peachford at the blacktop walkway. This is not safe due to Peachford traffic. **
2. The entrance of the Broadstone Apts on North Peachtree Rd at 7:20
Students from this complex can meet and then proceed directly on North Peachtree to Chesnut using the sidewalk and then crossing at the crosswalk with the crossing guard to the front entrance of the school

3. The intersection of Sharon Valley at Flintshire at 7:15
Students can walk a short distance to Kings Point Dr and turn left. They will reach a T-Intersection at Brookhurst Dr and turn right. They can follow Brookhurst Dr (mostly sidewalk) directly to North Peachtree Rd and turn right.
