Cedar Rapids district loses bid for extra per pupil funds
The Cedar Rapids Community School District’s request for 430000 in additional per pupil funds was rejected in full by the state school budget review committee. Superintendent Marvin Maire said the decision came as a surprise and the district must reassess programs such as dropout services, high potential projects, career centers, bilingual work, and writing improvements in light of the ruling. The bid split 96825 from the committee and 333175 in extra allowable growth, with officials awaiting a rationale letter.
