ANSONIA - For the second time in as many months a John G. Prendergast Elementary School student has been saved from choking by a quick-thinking adult.
In March, longtime kindergarten aide Kimberlee Martin performed the Heimlich maneuver on Liam Angeski, 6, who was choking on a piece of popcorn chicken in the school cafeteria.
And in April Prendergast Assistant Principal Sara Crooks performed the Heimlich maneuver on sixth-grader Jordyn Zealor who was choking on a chicken nugget at lunch.

Kudos to both women for their quick actions in saving the students' lives.
