(Wanatah, IN) - The Tri-Township School Board is moving ahead with plans to abandon the old LaCrosse school building. The board voted this week to hire a firm to renovate the existing Wanatah School.  The addition of five new classrooms at Wanatah will render the historic LaCrosse location obsolete.

Performance Services, the only company to submit a proposal, was awarded oversight of the project, not to exceed $2.5 million.  As of now, school leaders have no plans for the LaCrosse building after next year.
