Gov. Kim Reynolds signs bills including one that says when regents have to set tuition.

The Iowa Department of Education has introduced a new initiative allowing schools to establish safety assessment teams aimed at preventing school shootings and other violent incidents. These teams, which can include school staff, law enforcement, and mental health professionals, are designed to identify and address potential threats before they escalate.
