Discussion of allegations about D131 board member continues

East Aurora School District 131 board president Juan Sifuentes has called for the resignation of board member Annette Johnson following federal fraud charges. Johnson is accused of accepting $1.3 million in kickbacks to facilitate a $2.7 million air purifier purchase using COVID-19 relief funds between 2021 and 2023. The controversy was a primary focus of Monday's school board meeting, where community members expressed divided opinions regarding her continued service on the board.
