BUCCANEER BRAVOS
- THANK YOU to our First Responders. They responded PERFECTLY to a call last Friday to help a parent who became non-responsive in the media center. All procedures and protocols were followed, and the parent was successfully treated by EMT's.
- THANK YOU AGAIN, to our First Responders! They attended STOP THE BLEED Training and learned how to literally save life and limb in a catastrophic event.
- BRAVO to everyone for doing a great job with our Code Red Drill. Seven police officers helped us conduct the drill and provided positive feedback along with a few areas for improvement that we will share soon.
- HATS OFF to our grade levels - who had three days of training this week! We appreciate your positive attitude and hard work!
