As La Center is not supported by a local tech levy, funding for the added needs for devices and connectivity brought on by the pandemic has been a continued challenge.
The nonprofit, which is an extension of the Cowlitz Indian Tribe, is a regular donor to educational services and school districts in Clark County.
“Our district priority is educating students to become life-long learners who can thrive in a rapidly changing, more technologically advanced and diverse society,” said Wendy Chord, a member of the La Center School Board. “This generous grant that was made possible by the Cowlitz Tribe will allow us to work towards that mission.”
