Call to Reinstate School Bus Services for General Education Students in Chicago

Call to Reinstate School Bus Services for General Education Students in Chicago

In a recent development, parents of Chicago Public Schools (CPS) students, alongside local aldermen, are advocating for the restoration of school bus services for general education students. This push comes after CPS made the controversial decision to eliminate bus transportation for these students ahead of the 2023-24 school year, leaving bus services exclusively for students with disabilities and those experiencing homelessness.

The removal of bus services has raised significant concerns among families who argue that it creates barriers to education, particularly for students living in areas with limited access to public transportation. Parents emphasize that reliable transportation is crucial for ensuring consistent school attendance and overall academic success. Aldermen are echoing these sentiments, highlighting the need for equitable access to educational resources.

As discussions continue, community members are rallying to bring attention to the issue, urging CPS to reconsider its transportation policies and restore bus services for all students. The outcome of this advocacy could have lasting implications for student mobility and educational equity in the city.
