South Central Becomes a Heart Safe School

South Central Community School Corporation has joined several other LaPorte County schools in receiving the honor of being designated as a Heart Safe School! The Heart Safe designation signifies that the school is dedicated to the safety and well-being of everyone on the South Central campus and will continue to maintain and improve those safety efforts. Heart Safe is organized by Project ADAM, which is a nationwide program that helps communities prepare for an effective response to cardiac events.

A special thank you to the SC staff who have accepted the responsibilities of being on the response team, the Health Foundation of LaPorte for the AED donations and their continued partnership, LaPorte County EMS and the local first responders for helping with drills and always keeping our community safe, and Tonya Aerts and Project ADAM for setting the standards for cardiac safety and for helping the school reach this goal.
