[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 102677, member: 1550"] Thanks, all. A formal complaint HAS to be made through the "proper channels." It has to be in writing, so I spent yesterday sending out my complaints in writing to everyone, including the office of Civil Rights (Education) in Chicago IL. Meanwhile, one of my advocates has a non-verbal child in a wheelchair who has seizures and she is concerned that the drivers and aides have no formal training in seizures. She also feels that the wheel chairs should be locked down correctly, as the chair is fashioned. She is writing to the Dept. of Public Health about the lack of training drivers/aides have on this handicapped route. All in all, maybe this will not only help Lucas, but the other children too. I was greatly disturbed while I worked that route. The bus company itself seemed highly disorganized and the two bosses didn't seem to know amongst themselves what we should and should not do. I wrote to the Superintendent and the Director of Special Needs telling them I was going to tape our meeting because I have learning disabilities. Heck, they didn't even think I could seat belt a child in right; it would be hard for them to deny that I'd need "help" remembering the meeting. I feel that the taping of the session will lead to a more productive session and less going off topic. I can't imagine how they can deny me the tape recorder. I've already sent copies of everything to the Office of Education Civil Rights. Every single note I type or pen goes to them--they will know all the details. [/QUOTE]
