Parent Group Criticizes Discipline at Cedar Rapids Schools
Judy Daubenmier reports parents at the Cedar Rapids Community school board meeting criticize student discipline and rising freedom in classrooms. Superintendent Currie concedes discipline is a larger issue than in 1960, while board members urge actions to address problems and renew contracts only for teachers who enforce discipline. The board also considers electing trustees by district, reviews school budget actions, lunch price changes, and a nursing student collaboration with Mt. Mercy College.
