The Annual Condition of Education Report. A Report on Prekindergarten, Elementary, and Secondary Education in Iowa
Iowa Department of Education
This 16th "Annual Condition of Education Report" provides a wide range of demographics, statistics, and student achievement data to help Iowans better understand their public educational system. It includes all the information published earlier in the "State Report Card for No Child Left Behind," as well as a wide range of supplemental data. The statistics reported herein indicate that Iowan students consistently rate above national averages and that the state's teachers are highly trained and dedicated professionals. Schools are recognized as healthy and safe environments for students, communities and citizens take responsibility for the quality of their schools, and Iowa continues to invest a large percentage of its revenue to support and improve education. To maintain the high quality of Iowa's education system--and stay ahead of global progress and challenges--it will be necessary for all educators to embrace needed changes while having the continued strong support and involvement from policymakers, community leaders, and parents. This "Annual Condition of Education Report" is designed to facilitate that involvement by serving as a resource for information and strategic planning, and for benchmarks and indicators to help evaluate progress. (Contains 185 tables and 150 figures.)
