2026 Bond Referendum

The Keota School Foundation stands ready to assist in the process of preparing our local students for their challenges after graduation from high school. Here's how donors continue enriching the equality of education being offered in Keota. We have the "brick" project. It is a strategy to allow future graduates to mount up on wings as eagles, while it allows a tangible link to Keota. A "Foundation Wall of Support" was incorporated onto the Keota school grounds, to honor those who have studied, worked, and supported Keota schools throughout the years.

Sincere in the conviction that You can make a difference, the Keota School Foundation seeks to continue that strong foundation. Many have helped Keota celebrate by purchasing one or more personalized bricks for themselves, family, or friends. Many bricks remember a loved one or celebrate a special occasion with this truly unique gift. May the legacy you leave be a solid one.

The cost of each brick is $150.

Brick Donation Form
