IASB unveils The Promise of Iowa

Last week, the Iowa Association of School Boards (IASB) launched “The Promise of Iowa” campaign to focus attention on the future of Iowa public school students and to rally support for investments in public education.      
     Iowa’s future leaders, innovators and citizens are its children. They are “The Promise of Iowa.” Their future is created every day by Iowa public schools. 

     The Promise of Iowa campaign celebrates the many successes of Iowa public schools by bringing to life the story of Iowa public education. It’s a commitment on the part of locally elected school boards to ensure that Iowa taxpayers know that their investment in public schools is making a difference.

     The newly-launched website features inspirational videos and stories, one of which features the story of Miles Lee, a third grader at Tri-Center Elementary in Neola. Iowa's AEAs assisted with the research and student stories for The Promise of Iowa campaign.
