Empower Yourself: Personal Safety, CPR and
Smart Thinking
Be the best you can be, and help those around you as well. In addition to basic
first aid and CPR, this class will explore positive and practical solutions in how
to protect yourself and others from violence or harm. Learn how and when to
say “no” to uncomfortable or inappropriate situations, endorse anti-bullying
behavior, and acquire techniques for preventing and escaping dangerous
situations. CPR will be taught, but students will not become certified. “You have
brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any
direction you choose”- Dr. Suess

Survive!
You are stranded in a remote location - no shelter, no heat, no transportation,
unsafe water, and scarce amounts of food. Your goal is to SURVIVE! Your
objective will be to prioritize your needs, build a shelter that will protect you
from the environment, devise a way to collect drinking water, design and build
a solar cooker, and signal for help. If you’ve got a sense of adventure, then take
this hands-on class. You’ll learn how to achieve these goals through the use of
your imagination, common sense, critical thinking, and group collaboration.
Good luck!
