About Mount Vernon Elementary

"Introducing a strider bike program to your kindergarten PE curriculum can offer numerous advantages. Firstly, these bikes promote balance, coordination, and motor skills development among young learners. They provide an excellent platform for children to enhance their gross motor skills, which are crucial at this stage of development. 

Additionally, strider bikes encourage physical activity and outdoor play, fostering a healthier lifestyle among students from a young age. This program can also aid in building confidence and independence as children learn to maneuver and control the bikes on their own. Moreover, it promotes inclusivity, allowing children of various abilities to participate and progress at their own pace, creating a supportive and engaging environment in PE classes. 

Furthermore, the introduction of a strider bike program can lay a foundation for future cycling proficiency, potentially leading to increased interest in cycling as a lifelong skill and hobby. Overall, integrating strider bikes into the kindergarten PE program promises holistic physical and cognitive benefits for the students, enhancing their overall educational experience." Superintendent, Eric D. 


Mount Vernon Elementary School is seeking support for a complete Kindergarten PE Program, including a fleet of 24 Strider AKB-Specific bikes, helmets, pedal conversion kits, one Strider 20-inch bike for teacher instruction, 2 steel rolling storage racks, and curriculum.
