Montessori School students in Eau Claire will continue having to find their own way to get to class.

Monday night, the Eau Claire School Board denied a request from the Montessori board to provide school bus transportation for its students.

Nearly 160 children are enrolled at Eau Claire’s Montessori School.

The Eau Claire school board cited cost as the reason behind its decision.
