This week on “Newsmakers,” we learn about a new mobile preschool program rolled out by the La Crosse School District, with initial costs funded by Federal Covid relief funds. Host Ezra Wall speaks with school district staff about the program. We then hear folks with La Crosse’s Sustainability Institute describe the “Drawdown Challenge” taking place this month, and how you can participate to reduce carbon and track impact. (Due to a technical issue with last week’s program, this sustainability segment is a repeat from Oct. 1).
