CPR Training, Materials Available for Schools

By Wisconsin School Administrators Alliance staff | February 22, 2018

This message is provided on behalf of the CPR in Wisconsin Schools program.

CPR is a simple skill and can dramatically increase the chances of saving the life of a person whose heart has stopped beating.   Legislation passed last session will ensure that all students learn this lifesaving skill before graduating from high school.

To help schools, a program funded by the Advancing a Healthier Wisconsin Endowment is offering all public and private schools the opportunity to send educators to free training sessions, access online resources, and receive a bi-monthly newsletter on teaching hands-only CPR in schools. Schools may also be eligible to receive a CPR in Schools Training Kit at no or reduced cost, depending on the number of students who receive free or reduced cost lunch.  Each kit comes with 10 CPR manikins for hands-on practice and a training DVD.  To see if your school is already participating in the program visit:

Time is running out! This grant program is a 2-year program, ending in July 2018. If your school has not already participated, please contact the grant team at cprinwischools@gmail.com
