Letter to the editor: ICCSD shouldn’t make big decisions based on unreliable enrollment projections

Imagine if a weatherman said there was a 50 percent chance of rain a month from today. You might believe him. Now imagine his prediction went up to 80 percent. Would you still buy it, or would it seem a tad extreme? Now imagine he told you that he was 99.7 percent certain it would rain one month from today. Might his extreme confidence for a prediction so far in the future make you a little skeptical?

Iowa City schools audit reveals district had less money in fiscal 2025 than initially reported

IOWA CITY — The Iowa City school district had almost $38 million less money than it reported in a Certified Annual Report to the state in November 2025, a new audit shows. The fiscal 2025 audit shows the district ended that year June 30, 2025, with $24.5 million across all funds. That’s similar to districts with an enrollment of 3,000 students, according to an analysis of Certified Annual Reports from districts statewide. The Iowa City school district’s enrollment is about 14,400 students. The audit also shows that a capital projects fund — the Physical Plant and Equipment Levy, or PPEL — had a balance of $19.4 million but only $140,633 in cash at the end of fiscal 2025. Another capital projects fund — Secure An Advanced Vision for Education, or SAVE — owed PPEL $20.8 million. The money was used to pay SAVE’s debt payment on time. Overspending Last month, the Iowa City district shared that it overspent SAVE by more than $45 million over four fiscal years, using a fund primarily reserved to pay teacher and staff salaries to spend beyond its means. The fiscal 2025 audit revealed that SAVE was overspent by $33.5 million as of June 30,

“Not the Outcome We Wanted”: Hawkeyes HC Jan Jensen Reveals Thoughts After Loss Against UConn

Iowa found itself 27 points behind No. 2 UConn in its first top-10 road test of the season. The deficit put the Hawkeyes in a tough spot, but the final quarter gave them a chance to respond.

Iowa women's basketball holds steady in AP Top 25 rankings

After a 2-1 start to the 2026-27 Iowa women's basketball season, where do the Hawkeyes rank in the Nov. 9 update to the AP Top 25 poll ? Iowa stayed put at No. 10 nationally. UCLA is also ranked 10th nationally with an identical 469 points from AP voters. The Hawkeyes began the campaign with two dominant wins over Towson (73-45) and Eastern Illinois (80-39) at Carver-Hawkeye Arena before suffering its first loss of the year on the road at UConn (91-79). Although Iowa fell victim to a career-high 39-point performance by UConn's Sarah Strong on Sunday, the Hawkeyes' perseverance and continued fight throughout the game made the defeat a learning experience. It also meant the voters didn't punish Iowa.

F-86 fighter jet staying grounded at Iowa City Airport

IOWA CITY — A plane that’s always greeted visitors at the Iowa City Airport underwent a big makeover thanks to dedicated veterans in the area. For the last several decades, a North American F-86 Sabre jet has sat at the entrance to the airport, sad Bob Dane, coordinator for the Save the Sabre committee. The jet has been there for years, intended as a memorial for veterans. Every 10 years or so, the jet needs work done on the body; a new paint job, rust buffed out. The care is the responsibility of the Iowa City Airport, Dane said, but with costs rising everywhere, it wasn’t a high priority. “They actually have a line item in the Airport Commission budget for maintenance and upkeep of the plane, but it’s probably Item 30, and they run out of money about 23,” he said. In March, the airport commission sent out an email to local veterans groups, and local airports, asking if anyone would like to take over the care of the plane. The Clinton Municipal Airport responded, and was willing to pay for the shipping of the plane, and any care it may need going forward. A video went viral on

Hawkeyes Look to Take Care of Business Against Purdue

The Hawkeyes are riding a minor heater. Can they continue the trend as they return home to take on the Boilermakers?. That road trip could not have gone much better. Iowa walked into the shiny, new home of the Northwestern Wildcats, Ryan Field, on Saturday night and decided to do some redecorating. The Hawkeye defense sacked Nicco Marchiol six times and held the Wildcats to 1-of-11 on third down. L.J. Phillips Jr. ran for a career-best 128 yards in his first start and Braeden Jackson housed a kickoff 96 yards for his second return touchdown of the season. Iowa walked out with a 24-10 win that never felt that close, making it five straight over Northwestern.
