I drove Miss KT when she was in elementary school, even though we are only a block and a half from campus, because I had to sign her in to morning day care. She walked to junior high, about six blocks. When she started high school, I got her a city bus pass, because we were too close to school (less than 2.5 miles) for a school bus. If she needed to be there early or stay late, I would drive her. If she was being a total poophead, she walked. She was almost 17 when she got her license, then she drove herself.
