Iowa school start date proposal draws local control concerns
Lawmakers discuss a flex start date with Aug. 23 as a possible opener. Rep. Patti Ruff notes heartburn over last minute amendments and reduced local control. Lisa Bartusek of the Iowa Association of School Boards says districts still need calendar flexibility and would prefer a full repeal. The Iowa State Fair lobbyist argues the date helps tourism but is not ideal compared to current law. Senate proposes full local control over start dates.
