Early Morning Walking at Rush City High School

Jumpstart your day with a refreshing morning walk indoors! Did you know a morning walk not only supports physical health but also boosts mental well-being? It's a gentle exercise that promotes focus, supports healthy blood pressure, and keeps you fit. Enjoy the high school halls without worrying about weather or slippery sidewalks. Bring a friend, and let’s walk together!

Guidelines for Walkers: To join, stop by the high school office during regular hours (7:30 am – 3:30 pm) to complete a one-time check-in through our Hall Pass system. After your check-in, you’ll receive a walking badge to wear each time you visit. Here’s what you need to know:
