My K-8 schools were on busy roads and had buses, which I believe all of the students took; I don't remember anyone getting dropped off by their parents. Even though there was a subdivision right across the street from the junior high, they even had a bus pick up the kids there because there was no crosswalk for the four-lane road dividing it from the school. One kid from that subdivision did decide to walk home after school one day when I was in 8th grade, and he was struck by a car and killed.
During the summer, there were no buses provided for those of us who had to attend band practice (we had to be ready for the parade season in the fall), so I walked the mile or so from my house. It was a bit scary because not only was the road busy, but there were no sidewalks so I had to walk on the shoulder. I remember one summer, someone had hit a cat which had died on the shoulder, and I watched it slowly decompose over the three months--quite interesting!
My self-evaluation is still refusing to write itself.
My parents were both employed by the school system when I lived in MI. A couple of times one or the other was working at the same school I went to, so I got a ride then. Otherwise it was all buses, bikes, or walking. It was a small town, though, and I rarely had to deal with really busy streets.
