How far do K-12 students walk/bicycle/etc. to school these days?

<p>My kids walked about a half mile to elementary school and middle school. Their high school is about 3/4 mile away. Because this past winter was so harsh, they had far more rides to school than we normally provide. Our district has no school busses, other than for a few varsity sports teams. I love that my kids walk/bike everywhere, but get a sick feeling whenever I hear sirens go off during the time I know they’re walking to/from school! </p>
