Abstract
The State is divided into fifteen Area Education Agencies (AEAs), each of which is governed by an area education board of directors. AEAs began operation on July 1, 1975 with the purpose of identifying and serving children requiring special education, providing for media services, and providing other educational programs and services to public and non-public pupils. The establishment of AEAs was based on the need to provide equitable educational services among school districts. The AEAs were formed as regional units to aid the Iowa Department of Education (Department) and school districts in providing education to Iowa children by offering programs and services which individual school districts may not otherwise be able to provide.
