Driver education law stumps Cedar Rapids schools
Cedar Rapids and parochial schools clash with state rules on driver education under a 1960s Iowa law. Public schools seek state aid for a shared program, but the state rejects direct funding to parochial schools or private contracts. Officials cite enrollment boosts and teacher salary debates as drivers for and against expanding driver education amid district-by-district trial efforts.
