[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our bus stop is the last before the bus goes to school, and it arrives at 8:30.  So that's a good option if you are eligible for bus service and decide you want to try it once your son settles in.  [b]I drive my kids to the bus stop[/b], drop the older one off and then drive the younger one to preschool.

If you don't change your mind about the bus, drop off (at our school) starts at 8:40.  It runs pretty smoothly; there are a couple of adults and a few fifth graders who open the car door and help the student out.  You pull over, kid gets out, you leave.  [/quote]

:shock:

Isn't the point of a bus stop is that you can walk to it?[/quote]

Unless its right at the corner (which many aren't) if the concern is making the most of your time to be in two or three places at once, the most efficient way to do it is load everyone in the car first, go to the earliest thing and then go right to the next thing. My son is a walker to his school (five blocks away) but since I have to work, he gets driven to drop off. I don't have the extra 20 minutes to walk there and back late enough so he can actually go into school and still get to my office anywhere close to on time. [/quote]
