For Nevada High School teacher and part-time farmer Kevin Cooper, water quality practices aren’t just a textbook topic – they’re a part of his life that he shares with his students and community.
That combo of education, engagement, and enthusiasm is why Cooper was named the Iowa Agriculture Water Alliance (IAWA) 2024 Individual Impact Award winner.
“Kevin practices what he preaches in his ag classes,” said Iowa USDA-NRCS State Soil Health Specialist Hillary Olson, who nominated Cooper for the award. “He uses no-till and cover crops on his own farm – those practices make great real-world demonstrations for students when he brings them out to the field.”

Jackson B. had his Broadway debut as an Iowa High School Musical Theater Awards Showcase Triple Threat Award Winner. Jackson had 11 days of coaching, seeing musicals, and working with Broadway professionals to produce the National Musical Theater Awards known as the Jimmy Awards. He then performed with the rest of the winners at the Minskoff Theatre on Broadway.
The Jimmy Awards helped me grow as both a person and a performer. The experience showed me how much hard work is needed if you want to succeed at the highest level.
