Iowa House Debates School Aid Formula Compromise
Debate over a new state aid formula for K-12 schools begins in the Iowa House Tuesday. The plan retains a 5 percent growth and 3 percent minimum increase, allows local income surtaxes, caps state aid at 77 percent of per pupil cost, and permits an emergency fund up to 7.5 percent of the 1980-81 budget. Governor Ray supports local option revenue with conditions while opponents worry about city tax preemption. The plan seeks to stabilize funding amid a slowing economy and declining enrollment.
