How many children take the bus to school in the world?

Answer 1

According the 2000 census figures:

In 2000, 79.1 million people aged 3 and older were enrolled in school.

Of that total, 8.9 million were enrolled in nursery school, preschool, or kindergarten.

More than one- half, 49.8 million, of the enrolled population in 2000 was enrolled in grades 1 through 12.

A total of 20.5 million were enrolled in college or graduate school.

As many as 40% of the children in elementary and secondary school are not becoming fluent readers. Parents are advised to teach their children to read at home.

Answer 2

The answer to this question depends on the size of the district and how spread out or large the district is. In a place like NYC the figure would be low, but in many CA schools the numbers are quite high. A good guess would be 85-90% of the students come to school by school bus. My school runs 5 buses every afternoon so there are five bus routes to take students home.

Answer 3

There are over 50 million students that are expected to be in the public school systems and over 2 million in private schools. There are also many students in homeschooling as well.
