The Annual Condition of Education Report, 2018
Iowa Department of Education
Data and information are important components of school improvement. They show how schools are changing and how students are progressing. Providing and interpreting data is one of the critical functions of the Iowa Department of Education. The annual Condition of Education report provides valuable data about students, educators and school districts across a number of statewide measures. They include shifts in student populations and demographics, teacher and administrator salaries and characteristics, student achievement results, and school financial information. In addition, the Condition of Education data can be used to help schools and communities move closer to the Future Ready Iowa goal: By 2025, 70 percent of Iowans in the workforce will complete post-secondary education or training. The data for this annual report are presented according to: (1) Enrollment; (2) Early Childhood Education; (3) Staff; (4) Program; (5) Student Performance; (6) Special Education; and (7) Finance. [For the report from the previous year, see ED583725.]
