Abstract

Equitable access to educational opportunity is becoming more complex as Iowa's demographics continues to rapidly change. In 1987, one public school district graduated two students, one district graduated five students, two districts graduated seven students, one district graduated eight students and two districts graduated nine students. Sixty-one school districts graduated classes with less than twenty students. The largest school district graduated a class of approximately 1850 students.

There are rural school districts with limited numbers of students. Iowa presently has 56 school districts involved in whole-grade sharing agreements. There are projected for the 1989-90 school year, 84 districts in the state who will be involved in whole-grade sharing agreements.
