What's the matter with Iowa? Kimmi the Clown's warped priorities

 

Headline:  HuffPost, 8/29/2023

However, the Iowa Department of Education offers no guidance on how to ensure books comply with the law, leaving each school district to their own interpretation. It’s unclear whether the department will be providing guidance in the future. The Iowa Department of Education did not respond to HuffPost’s request for comment. 

“One of the unintended consequences is that there is a wide variance of interpretation of the law,” said Mike Beranek, the president of the Iowa State Education Association, the state’s only teachers union. “The anxiety and the angst and the worry about the consequences if they do something wrong is very burdensome.”

Meet Chad Aldis, inept head of the Iowa Department of Education.  He was appointed by Kimmi the Clown in March 2023.
