What’s in it

AI summary Iowa would provide $5 million to the Department of Education to help school districts create special therapeutic classrooms. These classrooms would support students between the ages of 3 and 21 who struggle with emotional, social, or behavioral challenges. The money is intended to help these students succeed in their learning environments.1

Read the official explanation

Moneys in the therapeutic classroom incentive fund are appropriated to DE for purposes of distributing grants to school districts for the establishment of therapeutic classrooms for learners ages 3 to 21 whose emotional, social, or behavioral needs interfere with their ability to be successful in their current educational environments.
