Pinson Valley senior honored for act of heroism
PINSON, Ala. (Trussville Tribune) — The Center Point Fire District presented a Pinson Valley High School senior with a 'Hero Award' Tuesday, recognizing her extraordinary actions during a moment of crisis. Just after school on Thursday, March 20, Andrea Alvarado witnessed a serious car accident that left four fellow students with injuries. Alvarado, who plans to enter the medical field, rushed to the scene without hesitation and provided care to the injured with professionalism and kindness. Alabama lawmakers vote to ban cellphone use in K-12 public schools 'A hero is someone who displays selflessness, bravery, and noble character. Andrea did not think about herself—she thought about those in need,' CPFD's post read. 'Her actions prove that heroism isn't about recognition or grand gestures; it's about putting others first and stepping up when it matters most. In that critical moment, Andrea's true character shined through, making a real difference in the lives of others.' Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
