Compromise shifts enrollment cushion in school aid plan
Des Moines legislative leaders and Gov. Ray forge a compromise on a $1.16 billion 1980-81 education aid program. Changes include lowering the enrollment cushion to one fourth of base, expanding use of prior year enrollments, CPI linked growth, and reestimated per pupil costs. The plan reduces phantom students and increases state funding by about $5 million annually.
