Ever since the school started, we have had more and more students from different grade levels attend here. However, it is quite clear that our school is still rather small compared to others, but nethertheless, teachers and students have begun to create clubs dedicated to activities such as sports, music, artwork, boardgames, and so on. The school has also developed other traditional programs such as Student Council, and from what I heard, our school is soon going to develop our very own Honor Society program. However, as we continue to grow, we come to the subject of something many people don’t really tend to consider, and that is our mode of transportation. Currently, when we have an event that involves leaving the school, we normally rent

With a bus, you only need one driver. Not only that, the average school bus can carry almost 10 times the amount of students you can carry in a normal car, which is almost the entire population in the school, including teachers!
The main issue with renting a car is what you’re actually renting. Depending on what you rent also can affect how much the cars cost, and also if the cars you need are actually available for the date of the event. There was an issue not too long ago where the school had rented some cars to take the student council group to a meeting, but the cars were not available, thus the group missed the meeting which if you ask me, makes us look unprofessional and unprepared.
Finally, the bus can serve as a walking advertisement. What does that mean? Well, if the bus were to be used as a regular bus, meaning that it takes a route to pick up children whose parents are unable to get kids to school, the bus can show people what the bus is used for, which could attract attention and possibly help encourage more students to know and come to our school …show more content…
Buses also require a special license in order to drive it. All of that may sound serious, but here’s the weakness; Our school already increases one grade every year, which eventually leads to a more crowded car pool in the morning. If a bus can take a regular route, the amount of people who have to pick up students will decrease a bit, which will improve the situation in carpool. Also, more and more people in our school are about to start driving, so the parking lot also has to make room for those who are driving, and it’s possible that the parking lot may get an expansion if there are more drivers anyway. Even so, our current parking lot still has empty spaces right now and also rental cars take up more spaces anyway, not to mention that there are different sizes of school buses depending on what you’re using it for. As for drivers, many teachers in normal schools already have to learn how to drive a bus, in case a regular driver is unable to show up, and since it takes two or three teachers to get to a meeting, maybe we should have the teachers consider learning how to drive a bus, or maybe just find someone who’s already properly
