New, modern body armor is thinner and weighs little more than 1lb. As the school year kicks off, SROs throughout the Magic Valley will be better protected as they perform their primary duty--protecting our children and teachers.\n\n\u201cThe Magic Valley is very fortunate to have community-minded individuals such as Mr. Andersen,\u201d Kimberly School District Superintendent Luke Schroder said. \u201cKimberly School District is very grateful for his generosity.\"\n\n\u201cWhat a wonderful community we live and work in, where citizens and law enforcement work together to meet the needs and solve the issues that arise in our community,\u201d Kimberly Police Chief Jeff Perry said.\n\nThe Spirit of Idaho Award was created by Crapo in 2000 to honor the acts of service by Idahoans for their commitment to improving their community and serving their fellow citizens. Crapo has presented more than 600 Spirit of Idaho Awards since the award\u2019s inception.", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-08T02:59:24Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://www.crapo.senate.gov/media/newsreleases/crapo-to-honor-magic-valley-resident-with-spirit-of-idaho-award"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.165555790066719, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
