Officials from Yamaha, Windrock Park and the school system gathered in the school’s gym to unveil the bicycles on Wednesday, March 25.
Yamaha Motor Corporation partnered with Windrock Park to bring its program “All Kids Bike” to the school.
Norwood Principal Lindsasy Foust said the bikes and accessories cost more than $9,000, but Yamaha had funded the program fully.
She said she was grateful for the partnership.
“This brings something educational, fun, [and] exciting, and will provide students with a lifelong skill that will carry them and something they can use for the rest of their life,” she said.
