I feel for kids today and the hellscape that is american education. I sneaked thru public school right in the nick of time. Busses were something you could rely on. Now kids don’t even have that and they get sent to the library that’s now a prison for acting out.
I also had this, across multiple school districts (changed schools several times).
And I was mostly very rural. Sure the trip took an hour or so because I was typically first on last off, but it was always there, and even waited for me if they saw me coming (1/4 mile driveway in one place, but never really close to the stop either way).
Where I am, school lunches are so carved up and privatized that it’s just reheated “catering services” junk food that costs more than just having lunch ladies and a working cafeteria.
I don’t know what I’ll do if this “Zum” grift fucks this place up further.

I grew up with fully public bus service. K-12 never had a late bus once with the exception of emergency weather events
Same. I rode the bus right up until I got my license in my senior year and it was only severe weather events like a blizzard where it was suspended.
