2024-25 Legislative Priorities

These priorities reflect key issues in education and will guide advocacy efforts for the 2024-25 session to support student success and strengthen our schools. 

We believe that student, educator, and staff mental health needs must be addressed and supported to improve student achievement, reduce dropout rates, and maintain a high-quality workforce.

Iowa school boards are elected by their communities to oversee public schools. Working closely with parents, communities, and educators, our locally elected school board is in the best position to determine the needs of our communities and students.

We believe schools must be open and welcoming to all students, and fully accountable and transparent in order to receive taxpayer dollars.

We believe that every student deserves to learn, and every staff member deserves to work, in a safe and secure environment.
