The Cedar Valley Family #STEM festival at the Uni-Dome earlier this week was a jam-packed event! 🙌 Around 400 people went through our Star Lab!💫 This festival is a part of media services the AEA provides to schools. #EveryDayAtAEA #CRAEA #iaedchat #ialegis

So many students recognized the kits & taught their parents about coding, while some experienced it for the very first time. Reserve resources & materials for your classroom, today! https://t.co/YgOdW0ozRD

The governor and legislators have no idea what legal jeopardy they are placing the Iowa DE in with their new models

[Central Rivers AEA @CentralRivers]

Iowa's AEAs collaborate with community partners to design family-focused supports for daily routines & early childhood settings. Together, we strengthen bonds & foster learning in every home & environment! 👏🙌 #EveryDayatAEA #CRAEA #iaedchat #ialegis

The senators in the GOP need a reminder that Iowans resoundingly said vote no to the AEA bill & any amendments. It is on the agenda tomorrow for the education committee at 3 o’clock. Please remind your legislators that this bill should be voted down along with any amendments.

[Iowa's AEAs @iowa_aea]

All school districts can tap into a variety of high-quality services and opportunities provided by AEAs. Every child deserves equal access to enriching learning experiences, regardless of their ZIP code. #iaedchat #EveryDayatAEA

[Keystone AEA @KeystoneAEA]

#EveryDayatAEA Today Superintendents took a short break to tour Keystone AEA's Media Library and to see the wide variety of materials teachers are reserving for use with students in their classrooms. #ialegis

With @NorwalkSchools students at the capitol advocating on the below important topics.

[Central Rivers AEA @CentralRivers]

Thank you @wcfcourier for showcasing River Hills School! Legislators visited last week to see how the proposed AEA overhaul bill would affect students. RH serves 80 students with developmental disabilities from 29 districts. #EveryDayAtAEA #CRAEA #ialegis

As an ITEC Board member, I fully stand behind this message.

[Janice Weiner @janice4iowa]

So proud of this amazing nonpartisan coalition to protect our AEAs:

-public and private schools;
-rural, suburban and urban; -parents, teachers, paras, grandparents, administrators;
-childcare leaders;
-pediatric nurses.

Way to go! #saveourAEAs

Once again the AEA is there to support the districts!

[Iowa's AEAs @iowa_aea]

School district administrators and teachers are giving us the thumbs up. Fall 2023 data approval ratings for 50 AEA services: 46 soared above 90 percent, meeting/exceeding expectations, & four (4) rocked approval ratings above 80 percent! https://t.co/gs8NEYMiZf

This is not a political post (you won’t find someone who knows less about politics than me).

This is Tryce and he has been receiving AEA services since a few months of age and has thrived because of this. Our AEA’s are great and do not need to be changed!! ⁦@iowa_aea⁩
