What’s in it
AI summary Iowa would double the amount of money given to high-need schools from $10 million to $20 million every year. This extra funding goes to school districts that have schools struggling with low performance rankings. The money is given to these districts based on how many students they have and must be used specifically to help those priority schools.1

Such funding shall be given to school districts with one or more attendance centers identified in the priority category for one of the last three years under the attendance center performance ranking system developed and adopted by the department. Funding shall be apportioned to eligible school districts on a per pupil basis based on the budget enrollments of the priority attendance centers for the applicable fiscal year. Funding received shall be used by the school district for purposes at the priority attendance centers in the district and shall be in addition to and not supplant any other funding for such attendance centers. The bill takes effect upon enactment.
