New Iowa Classrooms Rise Amid Shifting Districts
The Iowa Department of Public Instruction reports more classrooms are being built than pupil demand grows, driven by district reorganization. No federal funds are needed for school buildings, and the average cost for last year’s elementary rooms was about 28,000 dollars. The Chantry building addition at Malvern will cost roughly 18,300 dollars per room for six classrooms and a library.
