January 17 2024-The article discusses new data obtained by Chalkbeat Chicago, indicating that four months after significant cuts to bus service for children with disabilities in Chicago Public Schools, hundreds of routes are carrying fewer than 10 students. The data, captured on October 23 and filed with the state in November, provides details on over 1,000 bus routes serving 7,350 students with disabilities, offering insights into the district’s efforts to reduce bus travel times for these students under a corrective action plan. The data includes information on students’ IEPs, schools, pick-up times, and the third-party companies operating each route.
