Where's the School Bus?

It's Friday afternoon.  School starts Tuesday and Monday is a holiday.  I haven't heard from the bus company yet about when Alex is going to be picked up Tuesday morning!  So I finally get in touch with them only to find out that they want to pick him up at 7:30 AM every day!  I think I'll be driving him to school.  I don't even know what time the school day starts there; I'm assuming sometime between 8:45 and 9:00.  The school hasn't sent us anything.  I guess SE students often get left out of the loop in this district.  All these unknowns are driving me nuts.
