State aid role in Mills County schools debated
County records show Mills County received 89 826.98 in state aid last year, from general and supplemental funds, funded by sales and income taxes and representing about 15 percent of school costs. Despite some relief from state aid, property levies still bear the bulk of expenses, as local boards prioritize building, industry growth, and tax structure.
