I wish one of the suits in Oakville making these decisions had a child that had to walk this distance to school. Maybe then their issue would hit closer to home. My daughter's walk will be 3.9 km. I may be forced to send her to GDHS, where she will be bused!

That is 2 hours out of their day. If the students are forced to walk each day, is their not any concern that eventually the child will give up and not go to school? I am deeply concerned that you will find the drop out rate in our region will go up. What about Part time jobs? There will not be time for the kids to get home and get to their work. Our taxes pay for the buses - do not drop them.

The walk is long and often sidewalks thru Hungry Hollow are not cleared. Members of the Board should be encouraged to walk this route- especially in -27 celcius weather. I would gladly drive my child to school, but I teach myself, and must get to school on time, just like most parents must get to their work on time. How many students will drive? More cars= more parking.

The walk from Georgetown South is about 45 min to 1 hour, and that is on a good day with no snow or ice.
Now imagine this walk with instruments and heavy bags. This walk has just become harder and longer.
If the board or whoever is making the students of CTK from Georgetown South walk to school, i vote they walk with us every morning with all of the bags that we have to carry, and then tell us that its not such a bad walk.

First of all, we pay for this service, so it is passed there should be a tax deduction. It was -26 degrees today, and the board thinks that students should walk home in that. Did they also take into consideration that people have JOBS. Some parents aren't able to transport their children to, and from school.
