MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) – What was supposed to be a return to a sense of normalcy for some Milwaukee Public Schools students and parents ended up being a chaotic situation as there was widespread bus route cancellations across the district on the morning of April 14.
Parents at MPS schools received communications from principals informing them of 80 buses and 160 bus route cancellations on Wednesday morning. CBS 58 obtained one such message sent to parents at the German Immersion School.
One parent who did not want to speak on camera told CBS 58 Hawley Environmental School left parents affected by the cancellations with options like remaining virtual, even though they had wanted to go back to in-person, arranging other transportation or be excused until transportation was arranged. All those options, the parent told CBS 58, were unacceptable.
