The La Crosse Community Foundation has approved giving a grant in the amount of $30 thousand. The La Crosse Public Education Foundation expects to cover the incremental start up costs for AVID, including some intensive training for district staff. At the end of 3 years, the district will assume the ongoing costs as part of its normal budget.
