The staff at Kaimuki High School will be honored Sunday at ceremonies where Honolulu Mayor Kirk Caldwell presents the city’s Civilian Lifesaver Awards.

The event takes place at 1:30 p.m. at the mayor’s office in Honolulu Hale.

The presentation coincides with Caldwell’s proclamation of “National EMS Week.”

The Kaimuki High staff helped to save the life of a person who suffered a cardiac arrest earlier this year, said Emergency Services spokesperson Shayne Enright.

Enright said the patient will be there to thank his lifesavers.
