During its late September meeting, the Three Village Central School District Board of Education extended its deepest appreciation to two members of the community who have aided the district in training all staff in proper first aid procedures. 

Colby Rowe, Trauma Center Education and Prehospital Outreach Coordinator for Stony Brook Medicine, and District Manager for the Setauket Fire District Dave Sterne, were commended for the dedication that they and their agencies have given the district. In recent years, both organizations have provided the district with resources to complete staff training workshops on such techniques as CPR, the use of automated external defibrillators and how to control life-threatening bleeding associated with massive wounds.
