Monticello Community School District Elementary Associate Connie Randolph was honored by State Legislators Rep. Lee Hein, Rep. Steven Bradley, and Sen. Dan Zumbach last week for her heroic effort.
On Friday, May 14, the state legislators presented Randolph with a Certificate of Recognition at Carpenter School.

The certificate noted that Randolph saved Allardyce’s life, and that Iowa House and Senate extends their appreciation for her “heroic, life-saving actions.”
