Iowa’s Area Education Agencies (AEAs), Iowa Association of School Boards® (IASB®) & School Administrators of Iowa (SAI) I invite you to the 2025 Day on the Hill! This advocacy event will begin at the State Historical Building in the morning for an optional brief session on talking points and logistical information for advocating at the Capitol. Following the training, attendees will head to the Capitol to meet and network with legislators in the rotunda and to support the displays showing innovative programs and initiatives happening in Iowa public schools.

Note: Make sure you’re in-the-know before Day on the Hill and join us at our two In-Depth Advocacy webinars in January!
