Handicapped Adults to Ride Special Ed Buses This Year
The School Committee voted five to one to allow handicapped adults to ride Special Ed school buses on a space available basis this year after a heated controversy. The prior decision to bar adult transport sparked protests from parents and clergy, with liability and funding debates unresolved. The panel backed the move while some members urged broader community action and a task force study.
