Show Notes
Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds has signed a new law increasing public school funding by $160 per student, totaling nearly $4 billion for K-12 education. The bill also allocates $7 million for paraeducator and support staff pay raises. While the two percent increase is criticized as insufficient to keep up with inflation, it helps 199 districts maintain a budget guarantee for a one percent funding rise, with the state covering $42.2 million to avoid local property tax hikes.
