The Audubon Community School District was recently the benefactor of a generous gift. School officials says 1992 graduate, Jeanette LaFoy, passed away on April 1st, 2019. In her will, she left her home in Washington State to the district. The home has been sold and the district received a check for $191,000.

District officials say while there are no definitive plans for the money at this point, the district administration and Board would like to use the money for specific projects that have a direct effect on students and can be credited to Jeanette.

The district says it is very appreciative of this generous gift and is committed to using it to make a positive impact.
