In August 2013, Public Act 098-0305 took effect. This act requires the IHSA to be given a CPR training  video to post on its website so that staff at an IHSA-member school can watch it. The act also indicates school districts shall notify parents and encourage them to view the video, too.  Since Danville School District 118 is a member school of the IHSA, we are posting the link to the following video for you to view.
