Gear Up Iowa Week

This week we are celebrating and encouraging participation in GEAR UP Iowa schools. Des Moines Public Schools is a part of the GEAR UP Iowa grant.  To kick off the week, students from Hoover High School were invited to participate in Governor Branstad’s weekly press conference and a private proclamation ceremony, where Governor Branstad declared the week of September 19 – 23, GEAR UP Iowa week! Pictured on the Capitol steps are the students that attended, Eh K Law, Htay Meh, San San Te, and San Thang, along with Hoover Gear Up advisor, Alli Bogaard.
