Reply #2: Thought the kids cover the cost of lunch? [View All]

[CRF450]

I remember paying like $1.35 or sometime like that for lunch, thats what every student had to do except they had some special program for those with very poor parents to get lunch for free I think. As for operating costs of school buses, I dont know what to say. Pretty much all students in rural areas will not walk to school unless they live less than a mile from it, and even if some do, the school bus will still stop in front of the student's house who's assigned to ride the bus. I would have walked to school if I could have to avoid the school (hated that and all the jackass kids), two of them were 9 miles from my house, and my middle one was 16 miles away. The amount of time spent on the bus was about an hour and a half. Thankfully in my second (and last) year in highschool, I was able to get rides with my best friend, and his two little brothers while his mom gave us a ride to school. So I got about an hour of extra sleep :)
