[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They cannot do the bus routes until they know how many kids are registered/need to be picked up. That information is not finalized until right before school starts because people are still registering. It's just the way things are.

Here's what you can do. Find out when the bus came last year. Be prepared for either 10 minutes before or after that. Be ready to adapt.

Also, if your kid is going into middle school, they can get themselves up, fed, dressed, lunch packed and out the door without you. They can even lock it behind themselves is they last one to leave. The timing shouldn't be that big of an issue.

My middle schooler does that. He actually started doing it on his own a couple of months into the year. It is nice to see that jump in maturity now that they are no longer in elememtary school.. if you are still waking up uour middle schooler, getting hreakfast/making lunch, etc try weaning them into doing it on theit own. It is great when they finally master that.

OP, just ask the neighbors where the bus usually picks up and what time the kids used to meet there. The bus stops generally don't change from year to year. Just plan on him being there five to ten minutes earlier than the differencenin start times. As long as you receive the schedule prior to the first day everything will be fine. Havimgnit weeks or months out isunnecessary.[/quote]
