You need to have a before school activity and one for after school as well. Just till he gets used to rideing the bus

Did your parents make this arrangement for you? If so, tell them you need the other parents to share in the gas. And if you just don't want to give this person a ride, tell your parents you're not comfortable giving the kid a ride. If the kid is a lot younger than you, tell them you don't like being used as a free babysitter every morning and don't want the responsibility of taking their kid to school every day. His own parents need to step up to the plate and are responsible for him.
On the other hand, does the kid get bullied or treated badly if he takes the bus? There could be really good, valid reasons why the parents agreed between them that he could ride with you. Check it out before you decide for sure you want the kid out of your car for good.

Tell your parents you don't like giving him a ride, that you like to have your alone time on your way to & from school to relax, & it makes you feel in a rush, that it's a hassle to give him a ride. If that don't work, tell the guy you'd really appreciate it if he could help out & give you some gas money. If he doesn't, tell him you've got a buisy schedule & have plans after school so he'll have to find his own ride home. Maybe he'll then soon find his own ride to school as well. If he does give you gas $, u r stuck until you can find a different way out.

Well u can tell ur parents that u would like it if he pays for gas since ur nice enough to take him to school. Or u can eithr just up and ask him one morning" Say how about helping out with the gas or Im gonna have ato ask that u star helping out with paying for gas or ur gonna have to make other arrangements on getting to school.
Now thats just a adult way of handling it, ur parents shouldn't get mad at u because it's true he should help pay for gas because ur nice enough to take him and that his way of showing that he's grateful that ur giving him a ride.

If you don't want him to ride with you, then just come right out and say so. If you want him to help with the gas then just ask him if he would split the cost with you, explain to him it cost money to put gas in your vehicle to get you both back and forth, I don't think it would bother him to help you out since you've been helping him out.

WELL THAT IS A HARD ONE??? I THINK YOU SHOULD TELL HIS PARENTS TO GET HIM A CAR OR ASK THEM FOR GAS MONEY. SO GOOD LUCK HOPEFULLY YOU DON'T HAVE TO GIVE A RIDE ANYMORE....
