Office of the Governor: Vilsack signs education bill In first bill signing ceremony during 2005 session, - Governor calls on legislators to continue investment in Iowa schools FROM THE OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR February 02, 2005 DES MOINES—Governor Thomas J. Vilsack today signed Senate File 36 into law. Earlier this week Governor Vilsack proposed the largest funding increase for Iowa schools when he released his proposed 2006 budget to the General Assembly. The law signed today will provide state aid to Iowa schools during the school year that begins in the fall of 2006. The four-percent increase in state aid will help schools pay for instructional materials, textbooks, transportation costs, and staff salaries and benefits. It also will help schools continue to provide important extracurricular activities like band, chorus, sports, and drama. It will also help ensure school buildings are safe, warm, well-lit, and clean. “As a state, we have a responsibility to provide our children with a quality education,” Governor Vilsack said. “This state support to Iowa classrooms is important and I appreciate the General Assembly’s quick passage. However, there is more work to do at the capitol. I urge legislative leaders to join me in addressing student achievement and the critical issues of early learning, teacher pay and initiatives to keep Iowa schools safe.” Governor Vilsack and Lt. Governor Pederson have urged lawmakers to approve a supplemental spending plan with surplus cash from the current fiscal year to fund an early childhood initiative. In addition to these efforts, the Governor has a proposal to encourage efficiencies and cost sharing at the district level to direct precious state and local resources to Iowa classrooms.

Although they expressed a hope that things would get better and a willingness to be part of an effort to improve, a sense of despair was evident (IET, 1992, p. 16). The Iowa study found the opposite feeling. Generally, the participants were pleased with the education system and had positive opinions about what was going on in the school buildings and the quality of education the students were receiving. Future decisions about consolidation with neighboring school districts were a certainty. The smallness found in the rural districts contributed to an educational community that often provided the individual attention, the connection to parents, and caring relationships between students and between students and teachers that many of the participants in the original Claremont research desired.

Administrators were sensitive to how the small size made it difficult to recruit young teachers, particularly in content areas that are in high demand throughout the state, such as industrial technology, upper level science and math, and special education. Although each district had a number of teachers who had been in the district for over 20 years, other positions had a high turnover rate. These positions were often filled by young, single teachers who, after teaching one or two years, would accept a teaching and coaching position in a larger community that paid more and offered a wider variety of social opportunities for a single person. Each school district has tried to address the problem of few class offerings. The schools have attempted to utilize the Iowa Communications Network (ICN), a state-owned fiber optic communications network, by connecting the students in many districts seeking to take higher-level classes. Some districts have increased their class offerings through sharing programs with other districts where the student drives or rides a bus to a neighboring district to take a particular class. While these efforts have met with some success, administrators have struggled with conflicts due to different schedules between districts and the costs of the shared arrangement.

Or, will we touch the future and adequately fund Iowa schools? Just a week ago, on September 30, USA Today reported, “A study on Iowa’s response to a budget crunch found that lawmakers cut taxes and spent so deeply that the state’s ability to deliver crucial services is threatened.” Referring to the same report, the Des Moines Business Record reported, “Though states overall increased general fund spending by 7 percent from 2001-04, Iowa actually cut general fund spending by almost 8 percent during the period.” Only Michigan and South Carolina reduced spending more. The Business Record goes on to report, “States overall raised taxes 4.3 percent from 2001-2004; Iowa cut taxes 2.2 percent during the period.” According to the National Education Association, the National Association of State Budget Officers and the Iowa Fiscal Partnership, funding for Iowa education is sliding downward. Because of the actions of the Iowa legislature, Iowa education is threatened today. Iowa now ranks well below the national average in per pupil spending. And, we are still losing ground.

John. A Parvin is elected the organization’s first chairman. For the first time, women are admitted as full members of the ISTA. Years of work by the ISTA pays off with the founding of the first teacher training institution, the Iowa State Normal School at Cedar Falls. ISTA successfully lobbies the Legislature to create an Educational Board of Examiners to govern teacher certification. The ISTA-backed Better Iowa Schools Commission recommends education improvements to the 35th Iowa General Assembly which ultimately approves measures to strengthen teacher certification requirements and establish minimum teacher salaries based on preparation and experience. The ISTA undergoes remarkable growth with the hiring of Charles F. Pye as the first full-time "executive secretary." He and his staff of three move into the Association’s first office at the Youngerman Building in downtown Des Moines. The ISTA acquires Midland Schools magazine which serves as a popular and award-winning voice of the Association for more than 50 years.
