Brainerd Public Schools Foundation supports Alternative Education Center transportation needs
As part of $12,000 in grants awarded to Brainerd Public Schools, $900 was awarded to the Alternative Education Center (AEC) for transportation of students. School attendance will be improved if transportation issues are alleviated. Funds will be used for a dial-a-ride tokens and bus passes for 270 students for school transportation.

Alternative Education? From what I understand, this is a last ditch effort to bring the dregs of the student body to a point of squeeking out some semblance of decency and normalcy. 270? Good luck with that!!
In some cases
you are right rich. However it is also to help students who maybe found themselves struggling, or in with the wrong crowd and need some extra help. I have friends who went through a couple classes at AEC and excelled after that because it was just the little extra help and attention they needed.
