School bus accessibility: Families sue DC public schools for disability access problems

oann McCray wants what all mother's want, a fair chance for her child to succeed.

Instead, because of difficulties with student transportation, she said it has been stop-start, with roadblocks around every corner for her autistic 12 year old son J'Don.

"’No kid left behind,’ and you guys are leaving a lot of kids behind," said McCray.

In 2024, she tells 7News that J'Don is still facing issues, often getting to school hours late and missing both math and science classes.

He's struggling in both classes.
