The students viewed a video on how to summon help after an accident and met local paramedic Mark Baker, who explained how to talk with emergency personnel. Involved in a bit of role play were students from left Jasmyn Berz, seated, Hallie Caron, Evan Michael, Brooke DeMerchant, Caleb Libby and Josh Quist. In front is Nick Sleeper.
