Iowa school districts set to gain 3534 percent budget boost
Des Moines Iowa districts may raise budgets by 3534 percent for the 1989 90 school year, with state aid rising about 40 million. Patrick Cavanaugh says growth reflects Iowa's economic rebound and public education benefits. Critics note figures lag behind expectations and raise questions about funding fairness. The state’s share of local education costs would exceed 1 billion for 1989 90, including 915 million in aid and 92 million for the Excellence in Education plan.
