school commute

Daily classroom journey

A school commute is the regular trip between home and school.

The term covers both the journey itself and the time spent making it: Her school commute takes forty-five minutes each way.

It may involve walking, biking, driving, or public transit.

Parents often factor school commute into decisions about where to live or which school to choose.
