The Audubon Community School District announced Thursday they had received a generous donation from a former student. According to school officials, the district was presented a check for $191,000 stemming from the sale of a Washington State home owned by 1992 graduate, Jeanette LaFoy. LaFoy passed away on April 1, 2019 and left the home to the district in her will. At this time, the Audubon Board of Education and administration have not announced plans for the money. However, they have indicated they intend to use the money in a way that directly impact students and recognizes LaFoy’s contribution and dedication to Audubon Community Schools.
