This is heartbreaking. Simply heartbreaking. We are failing our family members who live and work in these LTC facilities

[Katarina Sostaric @KatarinaSos]

Published story on Thursday that said 114 Iowa long-term care facilities had active outbreaks and 972 resident deaths. Today, Iowa is reporting 144 outbreaks (a third of the state's LTCs) and 1,008 deaths. Gov. Reynolds didn't announce any new actions she'd take to help

Last night, my 8th grader admitted he was nervous about participating in Day 1 of remote learning bc he’s never seen half of his classmates before & he’s not used 2 everyone’s maskless faces. Sending all the love & prayers 2 Ankeny teachers navigating this new dynamic today! 🤜🏼🤛🏼

[Katie Claeys @katieclaeys]

Just put my group of instructional coaches in Google Meet Breakout Rooms, and I was so damn proud of myself until I realized I hadn’t actually told any of them what to do in that Breakout Room #killingit

To be clear, I have indeed arrived home only to discover he wasn’t fed a meal and instead grazed the pantry all day as a matter of survival

[Katie Claeys @katieclaeys]

Back to hybrid model this week for our 2nd grader which means this kind of parenting commentary to our 8th grader: “Please remember to feed your brother lunch today”
