(Des Moines) The Iowa House passed the teacher empowerment bill this week. Representative Tom Moore, of Griswold, summarizes what this bill means…
This bill also includes teacher whistleblower protection and it lays out a three-strike system for student discipline. First offense, meet with school counselor and one day of in-school suspension. Second offense, meet with school counselor and 5 days of in-school suspension. Third offense, remove student from that class and if in high school, not receive credit for that class.
