Close Up: New DMPS Superintendent Ian Roberts lays out plan to comply with book restrictions

This week's Close Up includes a sit-down with new Des Moines Public Schools Superintendent Ian Roberts, more on Polk County's effort to get gun owners to lock up their firearms and the latest on efforts by Iowa schools to comply with new laws restricting books that reference sexual orientation and gender identity.Roberts, one month into the job, laid out the district's plan to comply with those new book restrictions and talked about his goals as superintendent, including the safety and well-being of the district's 31,000 students and 5,000 employees. "I want to make sure that every single student and every adult who serves them feels a sense of safety, both from a physical safety standpoint, as well as social-emotional supports from the superintendent and his team," he said.
