Iowa Community Education Act

The act establishes a framework for community education programs organized and administered at the local school district level. It addresses how those programs are funded, including authority to apply a dedicated special tax levy for that purpose, and it creates the administrative roles that run them — a state-level consultant and a local director for each program. It also provides for advisory councils at both the individual local level and the district-wide level, specifying the duties each council carries in guiding and overseeing the program.
