for what critics called photo-ops in what he suggested was a support for the community in law enforcement after recent unrest there. >> the president painted a dark picture of a city torn apart by conflict even though mostprests including an event that happened during his visit. he did not meet with the family of jacob blake. mola leng hichlt is in kenosha again for us this morning. mola, good morning to you. >> reporter: the two topics consuming kenosha are the jacob blake shooting and systemic racism, which sparked the protests we've seen. instead of focusing on the causes of those problems, t president focused on the symptoms of those problems, the violence and destruction that have rock this had city. >> this should never happen. a thing like this should never happen. >> reporter: in kenosha, tuesday, president trump got a firsthand look at the damage in the aftermath of the shooting by

police of jacob blake. >> anti-police, anti-american riots. >> reporter: mr. trump focused on the violence instead of the peaceful protests for racial justice. >> do you believe systemic racism is a problem in this country? >> you know, you just keep we sho aut the kind of violence that we've seen in portland and here and other places. it's tremendous violence. >> reporter: the president was greeted by protesters, but also by his supporters. >> i think it was good he was here to see for himself rsenver the last week in the city. >> reporter: mr. trump never directly mentioned jacob blake, nor did he meet with blake's family. >> we need a president that's going to unite our country and take us in a different direction. >> reporter: tuesday, the blake family joined a justice for jacob rally in the neighborhood where he was shot. the rally offering services often lacking in the african-american community like voter registration and covid-19 testing.

about jacob and stand up my son since he can't stand up for himself. we'll stand him up. >> reporter: blake's father, jacob blake iii said that all that matters is his son's health. >> we, as a family, only care about jacob. we're not political pawns. we're not political photo -ops. all that we care about is the recovery of jacob blake. >> reporter: and blake's sister insists that the justice they seek goes beyond jacob. >> justice for black people as a whole. we want to be able to walk around in our skin and not feel like we've broken the law already. >> reporter: benjamin crump is the family attorney. >> would have liked to have engaged with him about reform to address the systematic racism that causes from city to city, state t s the extra

judicial killings of african-american people by the police. >> reporter: jacob blake sr. is also calling for immediate police reform which is a cry we hear from protesters pretty much every single day. he's also calling for the arrest and the immediate firing of the officer who shot his son. that officer is on leave during the course of the shooting investigation. anwhile,ob blake remains in the hospital. he is recovering, paralyzed from the waist down. gayle? >> thank you very much, mola. wisconsin attorney general is involved in the investigation in the shooting of jacob blake in kenosha. good to see you attorney general cole. what can you tell us about the investigation? >> thanks for having me on, gayle. this is an ongoing investigation in wisconsin. we have an independent agency conducting this investigation so that the agency from -- that th officer works for is not involved in the investigation. we're that independent agency in this case and the investigation

is moving forward swiftly but consistently with protecting the integrity of the investigations. over 80 witnesses have been interviewed. over 100 pieces of evidence have been collected and the investigation continues to move forward. >> i was going to ask you about witnesses and evidence. you just answered that. does any of the evidence show that jacob blake was holding a knife at the time that he was shot? >> we're only releasing certain information at this point in time so we can protect the integrity of the investigation. we released information indicating that a knife was recovered from the driver's side floorboard and mr. blake acknowledged that he was in possession of a knife. there were also no other weapons that were recovered from the scene. that's the information we've released thus far. >> can you tell us, attorney general cole, why the police were called to the scene to begin with? i've heard conflicting reports about that. >> they were called for a report that there was a person on the premises, a boyfriend of the caller, who was not supposed to

be there and wasn't leaving. so, police were responding to that call. >> and was the boyfriend jacob blake? >> we're not commenting on that detail at this time. it's important as we proceed with this investigation that we not prejudge any facts so that we collect the entirety of the evidence in this case, present it to a prosecutor who will make an independent prosecutorial decision. if a charge is brought that the jury makes the key findings of fact in this case. >> you know, the blake family, as you've heard, is asking that he, the officer, be arrested and charged. what do you need to see to bring charges against the officer? >> the charging decision in this case will be made by a prosecutor. our office conducts the independent investigation. but the standard for the use of deadly or potentially deadly force is if the officer reasonably believed that the person against whom force was used was an imminent threat to

the life or to cause serious bodily harm to another. we want to gather the evidence as fully and fair ly, but also swiftly consistent with that as possible so a charging decision can be made as quickly as possible in this case. >> you were one of the officials who asked president trump not to come, along with the governor and the mayor of kenosha, but a lot of people were very glad to see the president. his critics are calling it a photo-op. others are saying it inflamed tensions there. what are do you say about the president's visit? >> the situation on the ground in kenosha had been improving significantly over the past several days and having the president come brought more tension to that situation. we also, unfortunately, didn't hear any condemnation of vigilante violence. and as the clip you played earlier indicated, there was nothing from the president about how we can work together to address systemic racism. >> you talk about vigilante. let's talk about that for a

while with kyle whittenhaus. a tape was released by his attorney where he was asked if he wanted to thank his fans, which i think is an interesting choice of words considering three people were shot and two are dead. is there a case for self-defense here? >> that's a case that's being prosecuted by the kenosha d.a. and not my office. i will say that our leaders need to work to heal our communities, to bring people together, to call for justice and refusing to condemn vigilante violence, whether it's in charlottesville or in kenosha is unacceptable from our leaders. so i'm hoping we will finally hear a clear condemnation of that violence from president trump. >> all right. attorney general cole, thank you very much for your time today. president trump is pushing back on suffered a major health issue last fall when he made a surprise visit to

walter reed medical center. he's denying he had several mini strokes. a specific allegation nobody had actually made before he brought it up. ben tracy has more from the white house. >> reporter: president trump on tuesday tried to squash any rumors about his health. in multiple tweets, he called speculation that he suffered a series of mini strokes fake news. he's referring to this. followe presidential motorcade last november as it departed the white house for an unscheduled trip to the hospital. president trump was there for more than two hours that day. he later tweeted this explanation. visited a great family of a young man under major surgery. also began phase one oarly phys. but the president's routine medical checkup is typically announced ahead of time. and, according to a new book from "new york times" washington correspondent michael schmidt in the hours leading up to that hospital trip, vice president pence was allegedly asked to be

on standby to take over the powers of the presidency temporarily, in case president trump needed a procedure requiring anesthesia. >> there's nothing out of the ordinary about that moment or that day. >> reporter: vice president pence addressed the claims last night. >> i don't recall being told to be on stand by. i was informed that the president had a doctor's appointment. i've got to tell you, part of this job is you're always on stand by as vice president of the united states. >> reporter: it's worth repeating that schmidt's new book never mentions anything about mini strokes. the white house claims that president trump was responding to a tweet by former clinton press secretary joe lockhart who had questioned whether the president had a stroke. president trump then directed his physician to put out a statement saying that the president has never been treated or evaluated for a stroke. anthony? >> ben, the cdc just announced a moratorium on evictions for most renters through the end of the

ye year. it most people may be surprised it came from the centers for disease control. what can you tell us about this order? >> they say this is needed to slow the spread of coronavirus. they want to avoid a bunch of people being evicted ending up in shelters or crowded living situations. to apply for this new renter moratorium, substantial loss of income, inability to pay full rent, and needs to make efforts to pay paral rent. an eviction would leave them homeless or closely with others. it only applies to individuals making less than $99,000 a year or twice that for joint filers. this plan does replace a moratorium passed by congress and expired in july. it's estimated that millions could face eviction without more government help. anthony? >> ben tracy. thank you, ben. >> massachusetts senator did something last night that had never happened in that state. he defeat aidnn

democrats chose senator ed markey over congressman joe kennedy iii in the state's democratic primary. robert f. kennedy's grandson gave up his house seat to challenge markey. first elected to congress before kennedy was born got the support of young progressive democratic leaders. markey is a heavy favorite to be re-elected in november. in a rare move, the army has sidelined the acting commander of ft. hood, texas, and launched a high-level investigation after a soldier's murder. specialist vanessa guillen is one of at least ten soldiers connected with the base to have died since march. now a four-star general has ordered to find answers. mireya villareal has covered this for months t sounds like a big shakeup. >> it certainly is. conducting his own investigation into the army's chain of

command's response to the vanessa guillen case. we also know that general -- major general s elen d. newnvestigation is separate from several other inquiries, including an interview after vanessa guillen's mutilated remains were found in late june. natalie combe says it's in much-needed reform. this does not and will not address the issue of accountability. tony? >> mireya, thank you very much. faa and fbi are investigating a starting report of what they're calling an air space intruder. a man wearing a jet pack. faa says two airline crews

reported the close encounter sunday night, approaching los angeles international airport. kris van cleave is following the investigation for us. kris, good morning to you. what do we know? >> reporter: good morning. investigators are skeptical it was, in fact, a jet pack. but talk about a high-flying mystery in the skies over los angeles. did two pilots really see a man with a jet pack at 3,000 feet? >> tower american 1997 we just pass aid ged a guy in a jet pac >> reporter: then another sighting from a southwest pilot. >> tower we just saw a guy pass by us. >> reporter: jet pack aviation are not common. only a handful of companies in the world make them and they are not commercially available. the company says their technology was not involved. jet pack aviation ceo confirmed to cbs news he has been in touch with the faa about the technology but says their aircraft does not have enough fuel to get a person to 3,000 feet and back to the ground

safely. adding they are loud so it seems unlikely no one on the ground would notice it taking off, flying or landing. and then there's this from the air traffic controller. >> jetblue 23, please caution, a person with a jetpack reported 300 yards south of the la final at about 3,000 feet. >> jetblue 23, we heard and are definitely looking. >> only in l.a. >> reporter: only in l.a. for sure. now investigators do believe the pilot saw something. they're just not sure it was a jet pack. the fact that there is no video that surfaced from the ground also makes them skeptical but just what it is remains a mystery. gayle? >> all right. thank you, kris van cleave. it's interesting, guys, it remains a mystery if two pilots saw it. i could see if maybe one, but two pilots saw it. >> why is no one on the ground seeing it? that's theti>> can y imagine if and you look out the window and there's a guy -- >>

so you can... retire better. welcome back to "cbs this morning." we are hearing from breonna taylor's boyfriend for the very first time since she was killed by louisville police in march. kenneth walker's his name. he was in taylor's apartment when police barge friday with a search warrant and shot her. they were looking for drugs at the time but did not find any. walker is suing claiming police misconduct. now none of the three officers involved in the raid have been charged. jericka duncan spoke to walker's attorney about this case. good morning to you. a lot of people have been wondering about kenneth walker. how's he holding up? >> reporter: not good, gayle. you know, he said he is heartbroken over the death of breonna taylor. as you may recall he was originally charged with attempted murder of a police officer because he fired one shot believing that police that night were intruders. now that charge was dropped, but

it was dismissed without prejudice. what does that mean? it means that gun owner, and i would never knowingly shoot a police officer. >> reporter: walker's attorneys say he was standing his ground under kentucky law and should be protected from further prosecution. they also believe walker was wrongfully charged with attempted murder and that law enforcement officials violated his rights. >> it's just more evidence of the disparate treatment of african-americans in the criminal justice system, right. less than two hours to charge him on march 13th. but these officers have had about six months. they still haven't been charged. >> reporter: the night breonna taylor was shot and killed by promptolice toire back.fficerssh

eight bullets hit breonna taylor. >> that was a very reasonable assumption on kenny's behalf which is why he after several times of asking and no one responded, he grabbed his legal weapon. >> reporter: last week, jamarcus glover, taylor's ex-boyfriend, was arrested on drug charges. he was also arrested the night taylor was killed by police and was the subject of the investigation that led police to raid taylor's home. >> there is no evidence of any drug transactions ever or any involvement in the drug trade at breonna taylor's apartment other than her ex-boyfriend visited her there. >> reporter: accordingo this document leaked on social media by taylor's family attorney, glover was offered a plea deal last month in exchange for naming taylor as a co-defendant in a drug case. the lead prosecute, thomas wine, issued a statement saying the document was a draft that was part of pre-indictment plea

negotiations and taylor was never a co-defendant with glover. the prosecutor later directed taylor's name be removed from the final police sheet, but her address is still listed in connection to the case. >> the only thing they do show is that they will do anything to try to smear her in order to justify this police shooting. >> reporter: walker's attorneys claim the bullet that hit one of the officers likely came from another officer and not walker. they said they won't know until they see the ballistic report which the state's attorney general addressed on "face the nation." >> we do have that ballistics report. we will be meeting with the fbi at the beginning of this upcoming week to have a painstaking review of that information. >> reporter: walker and his attorneys say they will not let up. >> for her and those that i love, i can no longer remain silent. >> reporter: one officer involved in the raid was fired. the other two were put on administrative leave. the mayor's office says they have not seen the lawsuit, therefore they will not comment

at this time. we're still waiting to hear back from the kentucky attorney general's office, as well as the louisville metro police department. >> boy, that's an interesting maneuver to allegedly try to get breonna taylor named as a co-defendant in her ex-boyfriend's case. thank you very much. that's very, very ugly. the name breonna taylor is only growing louder. calls for justice in her case, only growing louder. and all avenues of life. >> a big part of this is qualified immunities. the doctrine in the law that makes it harder to charge an officer even if the officer is seen as acting outside the guidelines of their department. they can be fired but not charged. we'll see where the investigation goes -- >> the case isn't going ay. ahead, our dr. jon lapook speaks exclusively with one of the few coronavirus survivors to states. the patient describes how difficult it was to breathe and his life or death decision. we'll be right back. me see a gre sandwich and ask, "why?"

i'm gianna franco in the traffic center. and still a busy ride as you head towards the bay bridge toll plaza. sluggish conditions we had the eatrfic things were just bogged down this morning. especially off the eastshore freeway commute which is still 26 minutes to go from highway 4 to the maze. san mateo bridge, also a bit busy going across the span. 16 minutes, 880 to 101 and a crash highway 12 in fairfield. mary? gianna, here's a look at current air quality conditions. unhealth air for portions of the peninsula and the north bay with the spare the air alert that remains in effect today, tomorrow and likely extended through the week. here's a look at daytime highs and slightly below average for this time of year. we are really going to heat up though as we look ahead to the holiday weekend. excessive heat watches will be in effect for our holiday weekend.

it's . it's wednesday, settlement 2nd, 2020. welcome back to "cbs this morning." controversial kenosha visit. the president goes to wisconsin to talk about chaos as he seeks an advantage over joe biden. the politics of his visit to his city seeking solutions. school nurse crisis. kids heading back may not have access to proper medical care on site. how nurse shortages are affect regular opening plans during the pandemic. and we look at what parents need to know about remote learning. first, here's today's eye opener at 8:00. a controversial visit from president trump in kenosha, wisconsin. he toured the damage and posed for what critics called photo ops. >> two glares issues and topics

are the jacob blake shooting and systemic racism. the president instead focussed on the symptoms. >> you are one of the officials that asked president trump not to come. what do you say about the president's visit? >> the situation on the ground in kenosha had been improving significantly over the past several days. and having the president come brought more tension. manderf fort hood, elined the texas and launched a high level investigation after a soldier's murder. >> general john murray, the head of the army's futures command is conducting his own investigatio case. >> dickerson. it is out of here. >> absolutely historic for the giants in colorado. alex dickerson. >> 16 total bases. it is out of here. >> we miles a miernl league

record. >> and the other way. out of here. have a night. wow. >> welcome back to "cbs this morning." can't get more cliche than that song. it is a special day for us. it worked. as you can see for the first time since march, the band is back together. isn't there a beatles song all together now? >> 113 days. >> i'm happy to say good-bye to the basement broadcast center and hello to our table here. >> we're back. i can't wait to see what's going to happen this hour right now we'll stick with the three of us together. despite calls from local leaders to stay away, the president visited kenosha yesterday. the president toured local businesses destroyed by protests

turned violent and visited with law enforcement officials. he praisuncingheio anti-american. however, when it came to discussing the underlying causes for the unrest, the president didn't directly talk about the blake shoot and said he does not believe in systemic police violence, that it exists. >> i think the police do an incredible job. i think you do have some bad apples. and you do have the other situation too. they're under tremendous pressure and they don't handle it well. i call it choking. and it happens. >> while the president was there, there were some clashes between protesters and his supporters. but the majority events e mained peaceful. jesse jackson was at a neighborhood rally calling for justice for jacob blake. >> joining us now is reince priebus who traveled to wisconsin with the president.

he previously served as the president's chief of staff. also with us political contributor joel payne. good morning to both of you. reince, i want to start with you. you're the person to talk to this morning. you're a kenosha native and not too long ago you were talking about reaching out to minority voters. the president yet seemed committed to a different strategy. he only visited sites of destruction. he praised law enforcement and did not acknowledge systemic racism. has he given up on trying to broaden his appeal. >> first, i spent my entire life in kenosha. my parents lived in kenosha. i think yesterday was really for kenosha it, more of a thank you for freeing and saving the city of kenosha. i can tell you it's not spin.

people were v ad in kenosha. businesses were burned down. people were locking their doors in their houses, putting kids in basements, getting their hunting rivals out because they were scared for their life. and i think while many of the things you're seeing are important, and i'm important to get to those, i think you're missing in your intro, the 7:00 hour, your intro here, you're missing and dismissing the fear that people have in this country for wild violence put on by people coming out of town, destroying cities and businesses, and it needs to be addressed. first -- >> mr. priebus. >> do things like the jacob blake shooting need to be addressed? absolutely. but you can do both things. >> i agree you can do both things. that's the point. >> right. but your setup question is ridiculous. this has nothing to do with broadening the base of the republican party.

yes the republican party needs to add. they can't subtract people out of the room and they needef all backgrounds and talk about the >> mr. priebus, pertains to wh president has not been doing both things. he's talking to only one side of this issue and not acknowledging the pre vances of many thousands of people across the streets in people across the country. i want to get joel's reaction to what you said and to talk about the president's strategy overall versus joe biden's. joel, what do you think? >> i think your lead-in makes sense. i think the president needs to be talking to both sides. that's what the moment calls for, presidential leadership. we see the strategy of the president and his allies have been trying to deploy here, to make this about violence when we know that violence is down across the nation itself in some cities but it's down broadly

across the nation. it's not working. national polls have shown that the president did not get any bounce from the rnc where they talked about this issue ad nauseam. i think the president is misplaying his hand. he's thinking this is a suburban strategy. you're going to scare people in the suburbs. it's backfiring. because many of those people in the suburbs don't like it when the president talks about race. they don't trust him on this issue of race and unity and bringing people together. >> reince, it's true what you're seeing in terms of people were glad to see him yesterday. i saw the crowds lined up. cheering the president on as he drove by, but this is the thing that's hard for people to take. everybody agrees the looting, the violence, nobody on either side likes that. but it seems that the president only denounces it when it is against him. he doesn't seem to embrace the violence on both sides. and i think that's what many people are struggling with. i'm wondering how do you address it? he condemned the protesters as

thugs. on the other hand when he was asked about the young man with the weapon, when he was asked about that, he seemed to be giving him a pass. i think that's why it's so difficult. because he seems to be sending mixed messages. do you disagree with that premise? >> look -- first, there's a lot of things you said there. first, i think he's very foc focussed on portland. i don't think anyone thinks he's politically going to do much in oregon, but he's very fixed on portland. he wants the people in portland to do with the people in kenosha and wisconsin did by asking for help and having people work together. i do think it's across the board. i've never seen anything in my life -- i've been doing politics in kenosha since i was 16. i've never seen the city of kenosha, 65% democratic, line the street, 99% of the people saying thank you.

i'm sure a lot of democrats were out there too, but i do think he addresses it in a way when he says look, i know there are bad apples in the police force. am i willing to say that there is a systematic across the board racism within our police? i think that's a road too far. the last thing i'd say is even on "cbs this morning" you had the attorney general of wisconsin on your air, and he wouldn't condemn the police, e a ongoing investigation to find out what happened. how could it be possible for a police officer to shoot someone in the back seven times? i mean, the clip itself seems impossible to accept, but at the same time they have to do an investigation. i don't know if there's some wild piece of evidence here that might make this make sense, but it's horrific. i don't think it does make sense, but i also believe that we need an investigation to take place so we can see exactly what

happened. i do think there are issues in policing that need to be addressed. the sheriff yesterday and the police chief, one republican, i don't know what the police chief is, they both side on the first question, we need to have body cameras here in wisconsin. we need to have body cameras in that. >> how do we advance the conversation between people can't acknowledge there seems to be systemic racism. look at the numbers. the numbers of black people killed by police compared to the number of white people killed by police. clearly there's a problem. it's always reduced to there's a few bad apples. nobody wants any bad apples and people want justice, and when it does happen, they want police to be actabland heo fore, that doe seem to be the case. that's why it's frustrating. joel, i want you to pick up the systemic racism.

>> obviously there's systemic racism. i think the president is holding on to the talking point of not wanting to acknowledge it because he knows the support for the police across the board is an important issue to his base. i think he doesn't want to harm his political base. what he is not realizing is the moment calls for presidential leadership. which occasionally calls for you to talk to your supporters about changing their attitudes. and the president has not shown that he has the ability to do this. and by the way, he has tried to push joe biden in into a place he's uncomfortable and i think that backfired. we saw joe biden very forcibly talk about the looters and the protesters, rather the looters and violent protesters being wrong but also addressing the systemic issues. joe biden is showing you can do both. donald trump has no interest in doing both. >> yeah. thank you both very much.

we have much more news ahead, including the important steps parents can take to support their child's remote learning. plus, the nationwide shortage of school nurses has districts scrambling to cope. how much of the burden is falling on teachers. you're watching "cbs this morning." >> tech: at safelite, we're committed to taking care of you

is essential. our senior medical correspondents, dr. tara narula, shows why many districts are now struggling. i covered 20 schools, and you know, it's difficult because we're spread pretty thin. >> reporter: across the country, school nurses like nho le-hinds call the situation dire, with many of them juggling multiple schools at a time. the cdc's national recommendation calls for one nurse for every 750 students. most states fall short. >> california's average is one to about 2,200 students, and our district, it's about one to about 3,700 students. it's a big problem when we have

20 nurses serving 43,000 kids. >> reporter: during a pandemic, with still many unknowns, the importance of a school nurse on campus is more critical than ever. >> we have over 75 kids who have diabetes and management of kids with severe medical problems like severe asthma, sickle cell anemia. >> reporter: nurses say part of their job now training school staff like teachers and clerks to handle emergencies from asthma attacks and anaphylaxis to seizures. >> not fair to put teachers and school staff in that position. >> reporter: michael mulgrew, president of the united federation of teachers, says the shortage of nurses adds pressure at burdeoes this place uponem. teachers who are then expected to step into that role? >> well, that's been society's

shame for quite some tykime tha the teacher can handle everything. they're not medical professionals. >> reporter: for years, teachers have been filling the growing void. according to the national association of school nurses, 25% of schools in the u.s. have no nurse at all. and 35% only have a part-time nurse. this at a time when the nurses' responsibilities are expanding. >> they have to make the medical judgment whether it's corona or something else. then coordinating with the department of health to make sure that that person has access immediately to a covid test. that all now goes to a nurse. >> reporter: laurie kombe from the national association of school nurses says the issue all boils down to lack of funding. >> 77% of school nurse funding is from education dollars. and so their mandate is education, not necessarily health care. >> reporter: she says they are pushing the federal government for $208 billion as part of the

safer return to schools coalition to provide the resources needed to make schools safe for opening. as a parent, wouldrchild to sch that school did not have a nurse? >> my community has a high right of transmission, so probably not at this moment. >> reporter: the pandemic also presents new obstacles like mental health issues, an area % nurses routinely help students with, says florida nurse lisa kern. >> they are lifesavers from a physical standpoint, and then from a counseling and mental health standpoint, as well. they make a difference in the lives of children every day. >> reporter: reopening protocols vary greatly from district to district. for schools working virtually, nurses are still working on case management for students who have chronic health conditions. they're also creating health plans for students in case of an infection. many nurses say they are also using this time to adequately train school staff in

infection-control procedures and process. >> so important. we heard some of the nurses discuss the need to be in school for more reasons beyond the physical. what other things do they actually handle? >> reporter: laurie kombe said it well to me. she said kids come to schooling carrying much more in their backpack than just their books and homework. so the nurses are really able to identify the whole child, including any social needs, vulnerable children, and also to pick up on those emotional issues children may be having when they come in with a headache or stomach pain and it's really anxiety or depression. they're really the sentinel on the front line. >> there aren't enough as you said. thank you so much. stay with us on "cbs this morning." we'll be right back.

welcome back to "cbs this g morning." it's time bring to bring the "talk of the table," we should call it "talk of ter big table." >> super wide. >> double wide. so this is where we each pick a story that we like to share with each other and all of you. and tony, your first day back in 115 days, nine hours and 26 minutes, you should go first. >> i'm in the pole position. i'm going to talk about a california diver who found something i would say almost literally priceless. carl blye dives in the american river almost every day, near sacramento. a whitewater rafting -- >> look what he found -- >> people lose all kind of things. that is that prosthetic leg. usually he finds sunglasses, a wallet, keys. he dove and saw what he thought was a foot because it had a human looking ftse on the end. then he realized it was a leg, then he realized, gee, someone probably needs this right now.

this is the best part. he went on line, tracked down the owner, who was identified only as scott. and he got the leg back to him. it's worth $15,000. scott couldn't work without it. it was a major loss. bley's parting advice to swimmers and rafters, if you're going to bring something valuable, make sure it floats. >> what i thought was interesting about this, i saw this story earlier. they said scott did not want to say how he lost the leg. just that it was lost in the water which raises all sorts of questions about what -- the good news is they got it back. >> yeah. >> $15,000 is a lot of money. i was surprised to hear that. >> i had no idea those things were that expensive. this is a great story behind a great photograph. we want to show you a remarkable celebration by a family in north carolina. taylor bowles graduated from nursing school at forsythe tech this year. she took really special photographs with her great grandmother who was a nurse for 61 years. bowles says her great

grandfather, marger durham, was an inspiration -- there they are together. margie served as a nurse during rad world war ii for 60 years in all. these great photographs were taken at the house where durham was born way back in 1922, taken by denean brian of hazel grace photography. something passed down within the family. >> you had a great story. you had a great story. but i think i have the best story. >> i won't fight that. it's true. >> i got the best one today about our beloved haitian sensation vlad duthiers who surprised us last hour -- the th u n idea this was happening -- but our assistants knew, alexis, giselle -- i saw them with cameras. i thought they were taking a picture of you coming back to the table. it's the three of us. vlad and marian got married yesterday. yesterday, they had been planning -- this w to south africa with all of their families. they were going ona safari.

they were taking all the vae families. i love that shot. they got married just yesterday on fire island. i was thinking, tony, how nice to wait until you came back to the table for us to discuss -- no. they got married because it was vlad's mom's birthday >> aw. >> who was at the service? he says my sister, her husband, the kids, my little brother and his wife, our parents, and marian's sister, he says, joined us on zoom. i've been asking, listen, they've been dating nine years. about year seven i said, what you gonna do? what is taking so long? i'm told that's a rude question. >> yeah. >> that's an inappropriate question. but i was curious. he kept saying, "we're going to." i'm thrilled for her. i've been team marian -- always team vlad. we're very happy for them. the fact that they surprised us on air was nice. >> a treat. looks like a beautiful day which is, you know, which is just a wonderful -- the pictures are spectacular. >> and how appropriate that they did it in "what to watch." john tower, the big cheese around here, said rush through

"usa today" national education reporter erin richards joins us. good morning. and thanks for being with us.

>> good morning. glad to be here. >> you talk about the importance of parents communicating directly to schools and teachers about their child's needs during all this. how should parents go about doing that? >> well, this has always been importance, right. parents should always be communicating with their teachers about their child's needs. now more than ever, especially with so many districts starting either remote only or with some online int online instruction, it's important to have a direct line of communicate with the teacher via email, via phone, what is my child expected to do, what are the grading expectations, how can i be a partner and make sure that the at-home learning is as successful as any in-person learning that my child may be getting also. is not the same for every kid. so what should effective instruction actually look like do you think? >> well, it depends on what type

of instruction you're talking about. when we're -- now that we've got much more of an emphasis on providing remote and online instruction for more kids, that should look like some live interaction with your teacher every day. for kids who have devices and who have internet, that should mean that there's some number of hours each day that you're on line with a teacher and you're having some live engagement with your peers for that social connection. some kids don't have computers or don't have a consistent internet access, so for those kids maybe that daily check-in is a phone call from your teacher. maybe it's a phone call from another staff member in the school who can check in with that child and see how they're doing every day. >> uh-huh. i mean, you talk about there are a lot of kids who don't have connection that's you're talking about. there was a photo that went viral recently of a couple of kids outside of a taco bell using their wi-fi because they didn't have it at home. there it is.arents do if their kids don't have this access? how do they ensure that the kids are getting instructions? >> you can ask your school

district or school for individual paper packets. teachers can put together high-quality academic packets that guide children through a number of their academic concepts, math, english, science. they can work through those. these have been done successfully in other countries where kids live in remote locations. and those paper packets can be dropped off weekly. teachers can check in by phone. and so families can still have that one-to-one connection with their teacher. a lot of times parents need to ask the school for that material. if they don't have internet, if they don't have a computer, they can also ask for those. >> yeah. parents, of course, are -- many parents are working from home, too. they get distracted. can't always look at what their kids are doing. how do you ensure your kids sta? >> right. so when i've talked to child development and psychologists about this, we've talked about how important it is for kids to have a routine every day. in the spring, we saw lots of teenagers develop pretty whacky sleeping habits. you know, a lot of them didn't
