Farragut Elementary School
Join the Farragut Walk to School Days and help your child’s class walk their way to victory!
First Walk to School Day: October 9
Walking school buses are fun ways to encourage more families to walk to school. Groups will meet at 3 designated “dens” and walk together as a group, picking up additional kids along the way. There are currently 3 dens to join: Braddock/Sepulveda, Vets Park (Wagner/Coombs) and Lindberg Park (Stone House at Ocean/Rhoda).
Groups meet up at 8:10 and start walking by 8:15 Start at the meetup site or join along the way!
Volunteers Needed! If you are available to assist with walk to school days (guiding kids, tracking participants, promoting), we need you! Please contact Adrian Killigrew for more info.
Parent Travel Survey
Coming Soon!
Beginning in September, we will be asking parents how they get to school and how we can make it easier. We will ask you take a few minutes to complete the Parent Travel Survey and let us know how you get to/from school and how we can improve the program.

Take the 3 Block Challenge
Traffic at Farragut can be challenging, so we encourage families to walk or bike to school when possible. A short walk to school will benefit you, your children, your school and your community. Plus the extra one-on-one time is extra special.
Have to drive? No problem. Please park 3 blocks away and ease the traffic at Farragut. There is ample parking in the neighborhoods to the North (on Garfield, Barman and Lindblade for example) or near Lindberg Park.
We encourage parents to take the 3 Block Challenge by parking and walking 3 blocks to school at least once a week. Use the map here to find convenient parking and recommended routes. Parking just a few blocks away goes a long way towards reducing traffic and pollution around Farragut while adding some extra activity to your child’s day. There is plenty of street parking (highlighted in purple) on streets like Barman, Lindblade and Coombs. Plus there is convenient off street parking at Lindberg Park (near the Stone House) or Vets Park (please be mindful of all parking restrictions).
