ROCHESTER — Nearly 150 Old Colony Regional Vocational Technical High School freshmen recently learned CPR through training provided by the Rochester Fire Department, giving students life-saving skills they could use in an emergency.
A total of 148 freshmen participated in the annual training, which is built into the school’s curriculum to ensure every student learns the fundamentals of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).
Firefighters from the Rochester Fire Department worked with students to demonstrate CPR techniques and provide practical instruction designed to prepare them to respond during medical emergencies.
“This training gives students real skills that could help them save a life in an emergency,” said Superintendent Aaron Polansky. “We’re grateful for our continued partnership with the Rochester Fire Department and their commitment to making sure our students are prepared to help others.”
