well for the record, I had to walk 6 miles one way to school, be there by 7, no AC, heat was done by coal water boiler and I had 4 kids in my class, counting me so they merged 3rd,4th, 5th in one class giving us 19 total(only 3 boys, man i had i been wiser back then, them was 5 to 1 odds....), then sent us 20 miles away for 6th grade via an old beat up postal van the school had bought.
