Well, if he was truly hitting another kid with the can I can see taking it away, but only until he got off the bus.

Same school would take away a paraplegic kid’s wheelchair if they caught him doing wheelies in the hall.

IIRC, the cane is more than a “cow catcher”, can serve as a navigational aide. By listening to the clicks the cane makes on the ground, someone can know if there are obstructions ahead or if the path is clear.
Depending on how long he has had the cane, he may have started relying on the sounds. A swimming noodle would not do the trick and shows very little understanding of blindness by school personnel. IOW, they took his eyes away. I doubt they would gouge out Johnny's eyes because he looked up a skirt, or cut off Johnny's arm because he hit someone.
That is not an excuse to allow Dakota to use the cane as a billy club,
The adults in charge should have been able to figure out an appropriate punishment.

Blind kids need discipline too.

Was Dakota using the cane as a weapon? If not, I would tell the school to return the cane and apologized for this. If Dakota was, his parents needs to punish him.
a pool noodle?...really?

The skool administration probably blames the mother for not aborting a defective child.
