Iowa Senate moves to raise K 12 state aid by six percent
Democrats in the Iowa Senate plan three bills to boost state aid to public schools by 6 percent for 2015 16 and to increase categorical funding and preschool aid. The package would add 382 dollars per pupil bringing total aid to 6748 and includes 47 million for replacing local property tax obligations. Senate leaders say funding would close gaps and bring Iowa closer to the national average while lawmakers weigh revenue projections and forward funding rules.
