The minimum distance in the US is typically around 1 mile before the district
has or chooses to provide transportation. This varies though. In urban areas, no
busing may be provided if commuter mass transport is available. The max distance
varies dramatically depending on area, but can go as high as 50 miles in rural
areas.

See my other posts. Although age segration can be a concern, staggering by age
is more of an administrative/logistical convenience.
