(Des Moines) Iowa House District 21 Representative Tom Moore from Griswold says this week the House proposed a K-12 funding package for the 2020-2021 school year.
Moore says the plan would provide an additional 108-million dollars, bringing the total investment in K-12 education to 3.3 million dollars per year.
Moore says this proposal fits within the state budget and provides schools with a reasonable increase they can depend on. He says the plan also takes into account many of the challenges that school boards and administrators have brought to lawmakers and targets additional dollars to address these problems.
