Second, the program was designed to provide each participant with data on local school district trends and directions for comparison with neighboring districts„ Finallv™ the program was designed to provide each participant with a sense of direction (or lack thereof) on manv of the major education issues as a result of discussions with other state and local leaders- As a result, the authors hope that the statewide tabulations included in this report represent more informed •judgement in comparison to random surveys of Iowa citizens
