Public Funds for Public Purpose—Funding Student Activity Programs
Thursday November 21, 2024 2:00pm - 2:45pm CST
According to Iowa Code, public money may only be spent for pubic purpose. This can be challenging for districts since 'public purpose' has a flexible and expansive scope. In this session, join experts from the Iowa Department of Education who will help you identify allowable uses of the student activity fund revenues, determine allowable sources to pay for student activity programming, understand the board's authority to locally define public purpose, and contrast the application of public purpose as defined through various public purpose policies.
