It is walkable. Can you walk 2.5 miles? I can.
So, we're going to start school an hour later to let kids sleep in. And then make them get up at the same early time so they can walk an hour to school? And then likely get to school smelling like a pool of sweat. That sounds sub-optimal.
Whew, so getting to exercise is smelling like a pool of sweat? Can't figure out why kids are so fat....
Walking an hour to school, especially in various weather conditions.. yes, you'd wind up sweating a lot. There's a reason that most gyms have showers.
