Iowa Department of Education

Appeal Decisions

When an appeal is filed with the Department, and a hearing is held, an administrative law judge writes a proposed decision based on testimony and evidence presented during the hearing. A final decision is then issued by either the Director (CACFP, Transportation, and Athletic) or the State Board of Education (all others except Special Education). When an appeal is filed with the Department about a special education issue, an administrative law judge writes a final decision based on testimony and evidence presented during the hearing.
