Saying the district would appeal, the Adams County School District 14 representatives reacted to a District Judge ruling that dismissed a complaint against the Colorado State Board of Education.“TheCourt’s decision basically allows the State Board of Education to oversee all of Colorado’s public school districts related to the Accountability Act without any sort of check or balances,” Superintendent Dr. Karla Loría said.The district filed a complaint for judicial review with Denver District Court June 28 in protest of the state board’s decision to remove Adams 14’s accreditation and subsequent order for reorganization. The Classroom Teachers Association, which represents Adams 14 employees, also joined in the lawsuit.

The district has been plagued by low test scores for years. Earlier attempts to bring the district up to speed have not worked or been cut off early, including a contract with an outside management firm earlier this year.

The science of twins
When Taylor was eight weeks pregnant, she went to her appointment at Platte Valley Medical Center in Brighton and discovered the babies were twins.
“During my ultrasound, they said you have Di/di twins, which means Dichorionic diamniotic twins,” Taylor said. It’s how most twins grow, in their own amniotic sacs and placentas.
BY BELEN WARD BWARD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
“The gal instantly looked kind of silent and the whole ultrasound was kind of uneasy for Bryan and I,” Taylor Reider said. “She told us, ‘These are not Di/ di twins!’ I did not have much to say- I had a pit in my stomach and was lost for words.”
Commerce City Sentinel Express 3September 15, 2022
Mo/di twins are “...roughly about under 1% of all pregnancies. Twins are about 3% of all pregnancies, and 1/3 of these pregnancies are identical twins,” Dr. Galan said.
Both babies had their own umbilical cords, they were simply connected to the same placenta.
If the split is after eight days, you end up ments.babiessamesameinmonochorionicMonoamniotic(Mo/mo)twins,whichbothbabiesareintheamnioticsacsharingtheplacenta.“Youloseabout50%ofMo/mobecauseofcordentangle-Oryouendupwithcon-
with miscarriage. The later the single fertilized egg splits, the
more complicated and high risk it becomes,” Dr. Galan said.
Riley and Jaci Rieder were born on Dec. 10, 2021, and placed in Children’s Hospital Colorado Newborn Intensive Care Unit.
Riley was born growth-restricted, weighing three pounds and three ounces but was only in the hospital for three weeks. The bigger and healthier Jaci was in
SEE FAMILY, P4
Dr. Galan said one twin would likely be growth restricted because they share the same placenta with abnormal umbilical blood flow. It was a higher-risk pregnancy and would have to be closely monitored, he said.
The baby could become very sick as blood flow worsens, he said but it was a threat for both babies. For example, one baby could pass away, and the other baby could also be lost because of bleeding through the connections on the other side of the placenta from the smaller fetus that passed “Fortunately,away.the blood flows improved we could carry Riley all the way to 35 weeks gestation,” Dr. Galan said.
Dr. Galan said identical twins result from a fertilized egg that splits. The timing of the split dictates what type of twins you end up carrying.
Tough battle for ‘family of four’
That brought them to Dr. Henry Galan, a maternal-fetal medicine specialist and fetal surgeon for

Taylor and Brian Rieder with their identical twin girls.
It wasn’t until the Reiders went in for a more powerful scan at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Denver to determine their babies’ genders at 20 weeks before they learned about the amniotic sac.
“The split wasn’t even on the placenta for each baby. So one baby got a smaller placental share compared to the other. It sets that baby up for complications, such as selective fetal growth restriction,” he said.
It was a surprise name that meant that there was nothing unsuspected. Even though Bryan was a twin himself, they had no idea what Di/di meant. And further tests and ultrasound appointments didn’t change.
“Those vessels and the umbilical cords branch out like the roots of the tree across the placenta for each baby. And on the surface of the placenta, which is universally connected vessels from one side of the placenta to the other, they share a circulation,” he said.
Taylor and Bryan Rieder were expecting their first baby but were thrilled to discover they were expecting their first two — twins.Itwas no surprise for husband Bryan, an identical twin himself. But the news darkened a bit at 20 weeks when they discovered their twins shared more than most twins. Both were growing in the same placenta and sharing the same blood supply, a potentially dangerous condition called “Mo/di” for Monochorionic diamniotic pregnancy.
Taylor carried her twins for 35 weeks, with doctors monitoring them once a week because of several complications.
COURTESY OF THE RIEDERS
“Mo/di twins are very rare and only 1% of pregnancies carry Mo/di twins. They share a placenta and blood supply which can be fatally dangerous,” said Dr. Henry Galan, a fetal surgeon and maternal-fetal medicine specialist at Children’s Hospital Colorado.It’sbeen a rough year, but the twins are fine. Now, a little older than nine months, they’re thriving.“It’s been awesome to be able to come home from work and be able to take care of the girls. I put a lot into perspective because I’m also an identical twin. So knowing what my parents had to go through, you know, now being able to experience that puts it into perspective for us,” Bryan said.Adiscovery of twins
