    several reasons i can think of: (a) they generally need aides on the bus as well, because the bus driver can’t very well handle all that alone; (b) fewer kids need these services, and it is more expensive to have seat belts and what not, so it makes sense to cut a bus in half if you don’t need the room; (c) they have wheelchair accessibility, which some regular busses don’t, and ensuring that all kids that needed a lift were all getting wheelchair-capable busses would be crazy to coordinate; and (d) there’s probably some law that requires anyone claiming a disability within the public school system to ride the designated bus, to avoid lawsuits.
