What it does

This bill eliminates changes made relating to private instruction, including independent private instruction and driver education by a teaching parent, made in 2013 Iowa Acts, chapter 121, divisions X, XII, and XIII, and modifies a provision enacted in 2018 authorizing the Iowa learning online initiative to provide distance learning to students receiving private instruction.
