Walking school bus article in NYT
They call the walking school bus the piedibus (literally foot-bus in Italian) according to the NY Times article Students Give Up Wheels for Their Own Two Feed. To encourage use, children receive fare cards that are punched each day. The bus routes have distinctive names (the one through the graveyard is the mortobus), and compete for prizes like pizza parties for the students. Teachers have students write poems about the piedibus. Labels: SRTS, walking school bus
