Public education in Iowa consumes 55 percent of the state General Fund. On a local level close to 42 percent of property taxes are spent on funding public education. It is a leading budget driver in Iowa and with the ongoing discussion of education funding, especially how much is actually spent in the classroom, more transparency is needed to see how taxpayer dollars are spent. One such area is the ratio between full-time teachers versus administrators, staff, and part-time personnel. This chart compares and contrasts the available data from Iowa's school districts from 1996-1997 and 2016-2017. This data will help taxpayers determine whether their district is spending more dollars on teachers or administrators.
