North Hills High School Mock Crash |
 On Thursday, April 30th, 2009, many agencies from around the region along with Ross/West View EMS assembled at North Hills High School to educate the senior student body on the effects of drunk driving. This program, called the 'Mock Crash', has been an annual event for over twenty years and involves the North Hills School District and their SADD Program, Ross Township Police, West View Borough Police, Laurel Gardens Fire Department, Life Flight, the Medical Examiner, Emergency Room Nurses from UPMC Passavant Hospital, Dispatchers from the County 9-1-1 Center, Mazur's Towing Company, and pre-selected students from the senior class. Mrs. Michelle Medic, SADD Program Director, works very closely with the students and has put countless hours into making this program a success.
