(Wanatah, IN) - Plans to vacate LaCrosse High School took another step forward Thursday.  The Tri-Township Consolidated School Board voted to hire a developer to plan an addition of High School classrooms at their facilities in Wanatah. 

The Rollins Group will oversee the design build process for a base fee of $17,000, plus the $185 an hour for additional work.  School leaders expect the addition in Wanatah to cost around $2,600,000 in total.

According to current plans, the 100 year old LaCrosse school building would close next year.
