Life-Saving Skills: Bleeding Control Training for Students
We’re excited to offer optional Bleeding Control Training for students in grades 7–12! This hands-on training will equip students with the critical skills needed to stop life-threatening bleeding in emergencies.
Middle School Training: March 3rd (Lecture Hall)
Session Times: 7:15–8:15 AM or 4:10–5:10 PM (Both sessions are identical.)
During the training, students will learn to properly use tourniquets, chest seals, pressure bandages, and wound packing. The course combines Stop the Bleed with elements of Tactical Emergency Casualty Care, providing real-world skills that could help save a life.
This training is completely optional but highly encouraged for students interested in first aid, emergency response, or simply being prepared for the unexpected.
Don’t miss this valuable opportunity to gain life-saving skills!
Parents, please fill out THIS FORM if your student is interested in this training. Students will NOT be allowed to participate without a completed form.
For more information, contact Michael Lemish, AISD Security Coordinator at michael.lemish@argyleisd.com.
