This week, our school received a visit from The Clean Air Campaign's "Better Air Bair"!

Thank you for continuing to support our efforts by following the No-Idling regulations, carpooling, riding the bus, or walking to Addison.
Why should you support the no-idling effort?
Vehicle exhaust is harmful to everyone’s health, but it especially affects children who breathe more and at a faster rate than adults. By turning off your car, our students, teachers and parents won’t breathe in unhealthy fumes as they enter school.
- Idling pollutes the air we breathe
Vehicle idling creates unnecessary pollution. By not idling, you reduce car exhaust and prevent up to 3 pounds of pollution per month from going into the air.
A popular misconception is that idling your car uses less gas than turning it off and restarting. The truth is, if you are going to be sitting more than 30 seconds, it is more fuel efficient to turn your engine off. Idling also causes more wear and tear on engine parts.
