A group effort occurred at Camp Courageous this past week to save the life of a staff member who had a seizure while underwater and essentially drowned. Luckily, the Washington team realized the emergency and took action! The team of heroes includes Brad Carlson, Michaele Cook, Paige Holderbaum, Holly Harris, Mandy Ford, Claire Christensen, and Jenny Christensen. Brad stated, “Everyone did their job, we had a great working system, and everyone communicated without communicating”. Brad went on to explain that people stepped up and realized an emergency was happening and filled in to do the jobs without any preparation for such an emergency. The students were taken care of and everyone was in good hands. All the preparation for trauma this year brings this emergency home. Thank you, Washington staff, for your quick actions. You are true heroes!

Dear Parents,
At 2:13pm a fire alarm was accidentally triggered at Pence Elementary. All students and staff were immediately evacuated from the school. Due to the cold weather, all students and staff walked over to Fairfield Middle School with the assistance of the Fairfield Police Department. With the help of our Fairfield Fire Department and Fairfield Police Department, they determined that the building was safe for everyone to return. All students & staff were escorted safely back to Pence Elementary with the support of our Fairfield Police Department.
As always, our first concern is the safety of our students and staff. Thank you for your continued support and understanding.
Thank you,
Angela Jones
