                           FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF 1OWA

 THE ARC OF 1OWA ct            al.
                                                           Case No. 4:21-cv-264

 KIM REYNOLDS et al.                                        OF LISA HARDISTY
                                                            SITHONNORATH
                   Defendants


COMES NOW, Lisa Hardisty Sithonnorath and pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1746. declares under

penalty of perjury that the following is true and correct:

      1. Following this Court"'s decision granting the temporary restraining order. the Des Moines

           school board met to review their masking policy.

   2. On September 14, 2021, the Board voted to implement a district wide mask mandate in the

           Des Moines Public Schools ("DMPS").

      3. The DMPS mask mandate includes all students, staff, and visitors, regardless of

           vaccination status, and was effective as of September 15, 2021.

  4        I am glad the Board took this important step to protect children, like A.S.. who are at high

           risk of severe iliness or complications from COVID-19

      5.   Because of A.S. s medical and cognitive issues, she often mimics behavior and cannot

           follow instructions easily. With universal masking. A.S. feels more comfortable wearinga

            mask in school. When she sees other students and staff wearing masks it is easier for her

            to mimic those behaviors, as she can follow guidelines better when others are doing so as


            well
    6.    I have also been informed that the teachers are enforcing proper masking in the classrooms,

         which is reassuring.

    7. With universal masking in place, I feel a sense ofrelief, and believe that my child is much

         safer returning to school in person. My child is no longer having to take greater       and

         unnecessary risks- than other students to get her education.

    I swear under the penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States that the foregoing is

true and correct to the best of my knowledge.




         Dated this   day of September 2021, at Des Moinespwa
