For this week’s Big Story in the Quad-City Times, reporter Barb Ickes takes a deep dive into the Mississippi Bend Area Education Agency, which provides special education resources to some Iowa school districts in the Quad Cities. She reports that it was the only such state-sponsored special education agency in Iowa to show negative fund balances at the end of the past three fiscal years.
You can read Ickes's story in the Sunday edition of the Times, or on the newspaper's website.
