The Audubon Community School was recently notified that they have been awarded a Small, Rural Achievement Program Grant through the Federal Department of Education. This grant is one of two authorized under the Rural Education Achievement Program.  These funds are intended to assist school districts in raising student academic achievement and meeting adequate yearly progress.

The Audubon Community School award was for $32,530 and must be used to supplement , not supplant other funds available to the district.  The school district may use these funds for activities authorized under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act in such areas as improving teacher quality, educational technology, safe and drug free schools and/or state grants for innovative programs.
