CINCINNATI â The parent of a Walnut Hills High School student who has disabilities filed a lawsuit alleging that Cincinnati Public Schools failed to provide legally required education during the pandemic.
The lawsuit, filed Monday in U.S. District Court in Cincinnati, names Cincinnati Public Schools, Superintendent Laura Mitchell, Walnut Hills High School, Principal John Chambers and CPS Board of Education members Melanie Bates, Eve Bolton, Pamela Bowers, Ben Lindy and Mike Moroski as defendants.
According to the lawsuit, the plaintiffs, named B.Z. on behalf of the student R.Z., alleged the defendants failed to provide an appropriate public education for R.Z. by ignoring the effects of remote learning on R.Z. s Individualized Education Plan, refused to open R.Z. s high school and made no efforts for compensatory services.

The distance learning option on the table would have a child either attending school at the Cincinnati Digital Academy or distance learning through the online platform Schoology.
The other option is to have class in-person five days a week. The in-person option will require mask wearing and other COVID protocols, but social distancing may not be at the CDC recommendation of six feet in some cases. Superintendent Laura Mitchell called the situation a balancing act. The information and data is changing on a regular basis, Mitchell said. The thresholds are shifting on a regular basis as well. What we can do right now is to offer our families options and choices within our districts that will fit their needs.
