Founded in 1976, IACS is a not-for-profit 501(c)4 organization. All board members/officers serve in a volunteer capacity.
Our primary function is to represent Christian schools in public policy both by tracking legislation/public policy to provide information to member schools, as well as advocating on behalf of our member schools in the Iowa Legislature. IACS also educates Iowans on the benefits of school choice programs and Christ-centered education, helping build a culture of educational excellence and school choice in Iowa.
IACS is equipped with the unique ability to assist new and established schools in the areas of school improvement, consulting, professional learning, policy, advocacy, and accreditation preparation – all from an Iowa-specific perspective.
IACS is the ONLY organization in Iowa serving as the public policy voice for Iowa’s Protestant schools and the only organization that specializes in the unique needs of these schools.
