SENTINEL HERO: ANNA ELGGREN HONORED BY KUTV’S "PAY IT FORWARD" FOR SAVING HER FATHER’S LIFE

The heartbeat of Mountain Ridge High School is found in the character of our students, and this week, one of our very own is being recognized on a massive stage for an act of incredible heroism.

KUTV 2News recently visited The Ridge to feature senior Anna Elggren in their legendary "Pay It Forward" segment. Surrounded by cheering classmates, dedicated teachers, and grateful family members, Anna was honored for stepping up during a critical medical emergency and saving her father's life using CPR.

When high-pressure moments arrive, training and composure make all the difference. Our entire school community could not be prouder of Anna's bravery, clarity of mind, and heroic actions.

We invite our entire Sentinel family to watch the full, emotional tribute and see the moment we came together to celebrate a true local hero.
