HF 168 Iowa House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A bill for an act relating to notices that nonpublic schools receiving tuition payments from the education savings account program must provide to parents and guardians.

HF 168 requires nonpublic schools in Iowa that accept tuition payments through the state's education savings account program to provide parents and guardians with a specific list. This list, developed by the state education director (with input from teachers' and school board organizations), details rights and services available to students in public school districts that are not available to students in nonpublic schools. The bill mandates that nonpublic schools receiving funds from the education savings account program must give this list to parents when they enroll their child. It directly affects nonpublic schools using the education savings account program and aims to provide transparency about differences in student support between public and nonpublic school settings.
