Forte Junior High and Liberty Elementary are now Heart Safe Schools through Cook Children’s Project Adam.
Project ADAM's mission is to educate schools, nurses, coaches, trainers, parents, and community organizations about sudden cardiac death. The program provides free cardiac emergency preparedness resources and training to schools nationwide.
Project ADAM Texas' primary goal is to provide schools across Texas with the necessary tools and education to plan, fund, and develop their public access defibrillation (PAD) program.
School-based CPR and AED programs establish a community of first responders. First responders improve the likelihood of survival for students, school staff, and visitors with sudden cardiac arrest, and should be encouraged in all schools.
Designated campuses will receive a banner soon to display proudly on their building. Our goal is to have all of Azle ISD schools recognized as a Project ADAM Texas Heart Safe School this school year.
