Did you walk or take the bus to school?

I never rode the bus, always walked, rain or shine!

walked, rode my bike or caught a ride.

I grew up in Alabama in the 60's/70's. The only people who rode the bus were the ones being "bussed in and out" to desegregate the schools.

I walked in elementary school, and for part of high school. Junior high I was in a carpool as the school was further away.

Before I moved, I took the bus into school. My mom would take us in as well some days. After I moved for gradeschool I mostly walked or rode my bike. On bad days, again my mom would take us in. For middle school, I was too far to walk so I took the bus in every day. I think at that point my mom was tired of driving us in, so she didn't For high school, I was a block away, so I mostly walked. As I got older, even though I was only a block away, my friends would sometimes either pick me up or drop me off to school.

It was always too far to walk. I always took the Twinkie Chariot....unless Mom took pity on me and drove.

Kindergarten through 4th grade, I walked.
5th grade through 11th I rode the bus and hated it, it was such a l-o-n-g ride both ways. Finally, my senior year I was on co-op so had an afternoon job and got to drive. I was so happy not to have to ride the bus any longer!!!

I walked or rode my bike. The girl who lived next to me used to ride the bus. She was a grade behind me. But I wasn't allowed to since I was a year up.

Walked. Uphill. Both ways. In the snow.


Walked down one hill, up the next to the bus for elementary. Just over a 1/4 mile. Lived in the country and the bus could not make it down the dirt road and turn around.

Rode my bike after we moved into town.
