Among ISPRA's annual activities is a Communications Contest to encourage and recognize the development of high quality materials used as part of an educational organization's overall public relations plan.

Des Moines Public Schools wins top honors

Des Moines Public Schools won the Trish Glawe President's Award in 2008 for their Skywalk Ads entry.

The President's Award is presented to the entry considered the best in the contest. To be eligible, an entry must effectively demonstrate the use of public relations principles and earn at least 99 points on the judging form.

The award is named in honor of Trish Glawe, who practiced school public relations at Keystone Area Education Agency before she died of cancer in 2007.
