As there are many different students, there are also numerous ways for them to get to school. Most people ride the bus to school. This entails getting up early and making sure you don’t miss the bus. Others drive their cars to school, chancing the potholes in the parking lot. Some people ride their bikes or walk to school. And let us not forget that hardy breed, the motorcyclists.
