In previous years, information on licensed staff in Iowa was collected from schools through the Licensed Staff Detail report on BEDS. The data that were collected included age, gender, race/ethnicity, salary, contract days, contract type, degrees, majors, positions, and the assignments that go along with each position. Beginning in 2010-2011, a new web application was used to collect this same data on licensed and non-licensed staff in Iowa.

A total of 14,569 students (45.3 percent) in the 2016 class took one or more higher-level mathematics courses.

The number and percent enrollment was slightly higher in the class of 2017. The female enrollment in higher-level mathematics was higher than male enrollment.

The percent of students enrolled in higher-level mathematics courses was higher for the districts with enrollment between 2,500 and 7,499 than the districts in other enrollment categories in both classes shown (Tables 4-9 and 4-10). Generally speaking, female students had about 9 percent more in chemistry or advanced chemistry enrollment than male students (Table 4-11).
