Union Pacific and National Conference of Firemen & Oilers Reach Tentative Agreement

The NFHS has selected Eden Coppersmith, a senior at Paxton High School in Nebraska, as the recipient of the 2025 National High School Heart of the Arts Award.

The National High School Heart of the Arts Award was conceptualized by the NFHS in 2014 to honor individuals who exemplify the ideals of the positive heart of the arts and represent the core mission of education-based activities.

Eden Coppersmith's story is one of remarkable resilience and determination. Born with selective mutism and Spina Bifida, Eden faced significant challenges from a young age. Her journey began with a single word – word that felt like an impossible leap. By fifth grade, she managed only three words in class the entire year. In sixth grade, her voice disappeared entirely. It wasn’t that Eden didn’t want to speak; her heart longed to be heard, but her mind refused to let her.

Despite her silence, Eden sought connection in various ways. She joined a youth group, played the flute, managed the volleyball team and competed in track events using her wheelchair. Art, however, was her true passion. Her talent earned her ribbons at local shows, including two first-place awards. Yet, no matter how much she accomplished, the isolation of being “the girl in the wheelchair who doesn’t talk” weighed heavily. Very few people ever heard her voice.

Among those few was her speech coach – someone Eden trusted because of her unlikely friendship with the coach’s daughter. One day, Eden shared an extraordinary goal: she wanted to join the speech team. She no longer wanted to be defined by her silence. She wanted to be heard. The coach admired Eden’s courage but knew the obstacles. She had never spoken in class, let alone in front of an audience. Still, Eden was determined.

Her first speech, about Spina Bifida, tackled the condition that kept her in a wheelchair. But her wheelchair wasn’t her greatest challenge – her silence was. The first two meets came and went without her speaking a word. By the third meet, Eden rolled forward when the judge called her number. She opened her mouth and spoke. Her voice was so soft it was nearly inaudible, but she spoke. Her coach held back tears, knowing the enormity of what Eden had just achieved.

That first year, Eden consistently finished last. Her volume was too low, and she rushed through her speeches. But she kept going. Slowly, her confidence grew. She began speaking to a few classmates, and her progress became noticeable. With help from her school’s resource educator, Eden entered Nebraska’s first Unified Speech Event and performed at state. Using a microphone, she shared about her journey at a summer camp for children with disabilities, bringing several mothers of selectively mute children to tears. She gave them hope they hadn’t felt in years.

Her junior year, Eden wrote a speech about selective mutism and performed a duet with her best friend. The two practiced tirelessly, even rehearsing in the freezing cold of an empty parking lot to help Eden project her voice. Their determination paid off. They earned 10th place at a meet, Eden’s first medal. Encouraged, she placed second with her individual speech at the next competition and became a vital part of her team, helping them secure victories at conferences and districts.

By her senior year, Eden was no longer just finding her voice for herself – she was using it to speak for others. Her persuasive speech focused on advocating for financial reforms for people with disabilities. She began speaking more during practices – and even in class. Her journey, once about overcoming silence, had transformed into a story of resilience and purpose. Eden proved that even the quietest voices can inspire change, starting with just one word.

Along with the national recipient, six students and one performing arts educator were chosen by the NFHS National High School Heart of the Arts Award Selection Committee as section winners of the award. The 2025 National High School Heart of the Arts section honorees are listed below, accompanied by a brief description of their accomplishments.

North Platte Post/Sandhills Post/Panhandle Post

For parts of the listening area, the National Weather Service, North Platte Office (NWS) has issued a Red Flag Warning to go into effect for parts of the listening area beginning 9:00am (MT)/10:00am (CT) and will be in effect until 7:00pm (MT)/8:00pm (CT). Areas in the warning include north of Interstate 80 and stretches from the Panhandle into eastern side of the state.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Temperatures will reach up into the 70s with gusty wind gust and low humidity that could possibly create fire conditions. Many local area fire departments have issue fire bans during this time. Areas in Central, Western Nebraska have already experienced fires in the past few weeks as temperatures have risen, and winds have been strong.&nbsp;

While temperatures are on the rise, the NWS predicts potential storm to hit the region Tuesday night into Wednesday. The storm could possibly bring in some snow along as it makes it way over the area. A chance for snow to hit the region is very low for much of the listening area.&nbsp; &nbsp;

&nbsp;(North Platte, Neb.)&nbsp;&nbsp;— Troopers with the Nebraska State Patrol have arrested one person after a pursuit in Lincoln County.

Friday, at approximately 1:15 a.m., a trooper observed a Mercedes sedan traveling at 89 miles per hour on Interstate 80 near mile marker 199. The trooper attempted a traffic stop, but the driver refused to yield and accelerated to speeds well over 100 miles per hour. The trooper initiated a pursuit.

The driver fled westbound on I-80 with speeds reaching 130 miles per hour. Troopers were able to successfully deploy stop sticks to slow the vehicle as it approached the North Platte area. The vehicle then exited I-80 at mile marker 179 and began traveling northbound. The vehicle then continued westbound on Highway 30 through North Platte before coming to a stop near the Lincoln Highway RV Park.

The driver then fled on foot and a trooper utilized a taser to take the suspect into custody. The driver, Joseph Solie, 46, of Lincoln, was arrested for flight to avoid arrest, willful reckless driving, possession of marijuana – one ounce or less, possession of drug paraphernalia, and numerous traffic violations. He was lodged in Lincoln County Jail.

The Hot Sheets: March 15th, 2025

<a>March 14, 2024 (Lincoln, NEB.)&nbsp;&nbsp;</a>—&nbsp; Don’t push your luck this St. Patrick’s Day by not planning for a sober driver.&nbsp;Troopers with the Nebraska State Patrol (NSP) will be on patrol for impaired driving this weekend as part of a nationwide enforcement effort for St. Patrick’s Day.

“Impaired driving is dangerous for everyone on the road,” said Colonel John Bolduc, Superintendent of the Nebraska State Patrol. “The last thing we want is for this fun weekend to turn tragic. If you’re celebrating St. Patrick’s Day with alcohol, plan for a sober driver.”

Troopers will be working overtime across the state this weekend to ensure that everyone gets to and from their festivities safely. If you see an impaired or dangerous driver, report it to the NSP Highway Helpline by calling *55.

Troopers will be performing high-visibility patrols throughout the state from Saturday, March 15, through Monday, March 17, as part of this operation. This effort is made possible thanks in part to a grant for $20,172 from the Nebraska Department of Transportation – Highway Safety Office.
