Serial killers, child molesters, drive-by shooters just can't get to everybody they might kill if there weren't so many potential victims to choose from. And then there are drunk drivers, doped-up drivers, distracted-by-cell-phone drivers, plain old insane drifters, rabid animals. Not that you are safe at home since the same serial killers deliver, burglars might kill, and some drivers drive through houses. David for courage with wisdom Actually, all walking is hazardous.

As for the school district worried bout the cost, we could always start homeschooling our kids, would also cut down on bullying & the who is who status favoritism in discipline. That would save them a lot.

It's crazy that the bus drivers can't stop to pick the students up at their homes when the drivers are passing by. Mind blowing to me how this one and a half to two miles are costing the state so much money. Call me crazy.

Ultimate responsibility for the child falls to the parent(s) whose safety and well-being should be first. This action may impede the predators and molesters too!

If kids have to walk a mile and a half on dry land is one thing, but if kids have to wade to school, maybe our legislators will get the message that the state of Florida needs to fix our roads and bridges before spending a couple hundred million to put more local burden on our schools. 100 million here, 100 million there, and pretty soon you are talking about real money. while the entire area of Navarre between 98 and panhandle are flooded as people walk to their cars in standing water, and roads and bridges all over the two county area are failing because of these heavy rains which seem to increase each year.
