Aberdeen Public School District

Central High School freshman, Emma Keefe, was recently awarded the Citizens Lifesaving Award from Aberdeen Fire & Rescue for calling 911 and performing CPR on her mother after she collapsed from cardiac arrest at home.  Emma had recently completed the Health 1 class at Central High School where she became certified in this lifesaving procedure.  We applaud Emma for her bravery and wish to thank all of the first responders and medical staff who assisted with this call.  We are extremely pleased that Emma’s mom, Amanda, is recovering and we are very proud of Emma for her heroic efforts.
