School Transportation News
Tallmadge City Schools in Ohio is eliminating transportation for hundreds of high school students this school year as the district works to reduce costs amid funding concerns and a series of failed levies, reported ABC 5.
According to the news report, Superintendent Steve Wood said the district will no longer provide transportation for any high school students, leaving about 800 students without bus routes.
Elementary and middle school students who live within two miles of their schools will also be ineligible for district transportation.
However, Wood warned that continued funding reductions could prevent the district from doing so and lead to additional cuts.
The transportation reductions mark the district’s second round of budget cuts.
