Abstract
With the restructuring process still a factor in all of the states, certain states are more attuned to some or all of the problems indicated by Knezevich. Iowa faces the problems of reorganization, restructuring or school district change (whatever one chooses to call it) because of two immediate factors: 1) declining enrollments in almost all areas of the state and 2) the fact that the state funding plan is tied directly to the number of students in each district. Because of these two factors and the additional element that the state legislature controls the local districts resources for education through the State Foundation Plan, many districts are faced with insurmountable problems. Given the previously stated circumstances some form of change is unavoidable.
