During a math lesson at South Elementary in Ms. Courtney Weller’s first-grade classroom, a student accidentally swallowed a marker cap. Ms. Weller sprang into action and performed the Heimlich Maneuver, dislodging the cap and saving the student’s life. 

Ms. Weller was interviewed on ABC 6 On Your Side about her heroic act. We are sincerely grateful for her selflessness and dedication to her students. Click HERE to watch her full interview with reporter Stephanie Duprey.
