Summary

The evening EMT class discussed on September 19, 2006, was postponed because its 172 classroom hours and 32 mainland clinical hours exceeded what residents could commit. The Beacon instead publicized a roughly 90-hour first-responder course for Beaver Island Community School tenth graders, open to adults.

Evidence limits

The report does not establish whether the later school course ran or how many students enrolled.
