The Iowa Association of School Boards (IASB) is registered in support because it keeps the Teach Iowa Scholar program funded. This program helps keeps teachers in our state and given the teacher shortage Iowa schools faced before the pandemic and now during, this is a positive step towards keeping this program funded and helping keep teachers in hard to fill positions in our state. IASB urges the sub committee to approve this legislation.
