We are proud to announce that we are officially recognized as a Project ADAM Illinois Heart Safe School!
Project ADAM Illinois is a statewide initiative focused on preventing sudden cardiac death in schools and communities. As part of a national network, the program works with schools and organizations to establish Heart Safe environments by implementing Cardiac Emergency Response Plans (CERPs), ensuring access to AEDs, and providing CPR/AED training. The goal is to ensure staff and communities are prepared to respond quickly and effectively in the event of a sudden cardiac arrest.
A special THANK YOU to Officer Roedl and our School Nurses (Melissa, Brittany, & Kerri) for working hard to certify all of our schools!
