Fire & Emergency Services Pathway

Fire and Emergency Services and Pathway
 
Fire Science
We are looking for strong, fearless, levelheaded recruits.  When there is a dangerous situation, are you one to go check it out and see if you can help?  Learn how to be a first responder—staying calm under pressure, even when in serious or dangerous situations. The culmination of the pathway is to provide discipline, self-awareness, and the strength that is needed to become a firefighter. For more information, see Mr. Ortiz in D-11
