Plymouth Community School Corporation Recognized as Heart Smart Schools 

Plymouth Community School Corporation (PCSC) is proud to celebrate Plymouth High School, Menominee Elementary School, and Riverside Intermediate School for earning official Project ADAM Heart Safe School designations — recognizing their ongoing commitment to student, staff, and community safety.

As part of PCSC’s proactive efforts, led by our Director of Safety & Security Ward Byers, to strengthen school safety initiatives, the corporation began implementing Sudden Cardiac Arrest Response Teams and Protocols last year. These teams ensure that schools are prepared to respond quickly and effectively in the event of a cardiac emergency.

“Receiving Project ADAM at our school represents a commitment to the safety and well-being of every student, staff member, and visitor on our campus,” said Michelle Zentz, Principal at Riverside Intermediate School. “Knowing we’re now better prepared to respond in a cardiac emergency gives us confidence and peace of mind. We’re proud to take on this responsibility and to be part of a program that truly saves lives.”

Ryan Welch, Principal at Menominee Elementary School, shared a similar sentiment:
“This recognition from Project ADAM is meaningful to us here at Menominee. With guidance and training from our Director of Safety, Mr. Ward Byers, we as a staff know we are prepared in the event of a true cardiac crisis. With safety and the well-being of our students always at the forefront of what we do in schools, this training gives us the knowledge and confidence to be best prepared.”

Jake Singleton, Principal at Plymouth High School, emphasized the impact of ongoing readiness:
“Being recognized as a Project ADAM Heart Safe School affirms our commitment to protect every student, staff member, and visitor. Our team trains regularly on AED use and emergency response, and we’re ready to act the moment seconds matter.”

The Project ADAM Heart Safe School Designation is awarded to schools that successfully implement comprehensive sudden cardiac arrest programs, including awareness, staff training, and emergency response procedures. These life-saving initiatives extend beyond the regular school day to include athletic programs, events, and community visitors — helping ensure that every person on campus is protected.

A special thank you goes to Gibson and Andy Metsker for providing CPR training to PCSC staff, supporting the district’s mission to maintain safe and prepared learning environments.
