The La Crosse School District is set to benefit from enhanced funding for special education over the next two years following the recent signing of the state budget by Governor Evers. During a discussion on La Crosse Talk, Superintendent Dr. Aaron Engel highlighted the significance of this financial support, noting that the district will receive 42 percent funding in the first year, which will increase to 45 percent in the second year.
This funding boost is expected to greatly assist the district in addressing the diverse needs of its students with disabilities. The additional resources will enable schools to provide more comprehensive services and support, ultimately fostering an inclusive learning environment. Engel expressed optimism about the positive impact this funding will have on both students and educators, emphasizing the importance of adequate resources in delivering quality education. The district's commitment to supporting all learners remains a top priority, and this financial assistance marks a significant step forward in their efforts.
