Financial Vise Clamps Iowa School Programs
Iowa education faces funding pressure as enrollment falls while costs rise. Robert Gilchrist of Des Moines cites per pupil funding at 1343 dollars this year, 7.8 percent higher than 1245 dollars, with gaps between expenses and student counts. He proposes revisions to per pupil funding and notes a 1977 ISEA survey showing program cuts and staff reductions across districts. He stresses growth factor reforms and keeping taxes in check as districts adjust to shifting enrollments. The piece also recalls Nixon's 1971 wage price control move enacted earlier that year.
