30 JULY 2020 - DES MOINES, IOWA: at the State Capitol in Des Moines. Gov. Reynolds stressed the importance of in person education but laid out the guidelines under which Iowa would allow on line instruction. She said that Iowa schools would have to see a coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) positivity rate of at least 15% in the county where they are located before they could request to transition a school building or district to fully online learning. Many Iowa teachers and students object to the Governor's insistence on in person education, saying it is to dangerous and the risk of COVID-19 infection too high to force schools to reopen.
