Reynolds is hoping to see more lessons like this in elementary schools around Iowa in the coming years as House File 2618 is implemented. The law has new testing requirements intended to help aspiring Iowa teachers improve their literacy instruction and requires schools to provide personalized plans to elementary school students who are not reading at grade level.

From the Cedar Rapids Gazette: (3/8/2024)
According to the National Education Association, the average salary for starting teachers in Iowa is $39,208, which ranks 35th among the 50 states.
Reynolds recently signed a bill that includes increasing the starting salary for teachers to $50,000.
So there's that.
