Riding the bus has got to be better than 30+ families carpooling. Not to mention carpooling adding to the already congested drop off lane at the schools. We have about 50 children that ride the elementary here.

Walking to school would be great if you lived in a safe neighborhood and were close. Not really likely for most school children.

Hypothetically, my older elementary children could make the walk to the neighborhood elementary school, however, parts of our neighborhood do not have sidewalks and we live in a hilly area limiting driver’s visibility in certain areas. Local governments and developers need to consider putting in more sidewalks and bike lanes so the entire community can walk more.

We homeschool, but if we didn’t and my children wanted to walk to school….their walk, especially through safe areas only would be 11.6 miles. Not necessarily do-able for a 6 year old.

The public schools in the area are charging parents who send their kids to school on the bus – I think it is a minimum of $100 per family and that goes towards fuel costs.

Sure, buses depend on fossil fuels to run, but they’re still public transportation, carrying dozens of kids at once. That’s better than having each kid ride in a parent’s car. Also, I thought diesel fuel was better than regular gasoline . . . ? (I don’t know too much about this, but I thought I’d read that somewhere.)

Once my daughter is old enough, she will be walking to school. I figure I will walk her there myself until she is old enough to do so on her own–or maybe she’ll have friends she can walk with. Of course, I realize this is a luxury many parents don’t have. Either they live in unsafe neighborhoods, as you pointed out, or the parents have to go to work and don’t have time to walk the kids to school every day.
