Firefighters are one of the three public safety divisions (EMS, Fire & Law Enforcement). The one-year Fire Fighter program introduces students to the exciting career field of Fire Fighting. This would also require the successful completion of EMT-B (see page 25). This course meets the sequential elective requirement. This new program includes the opportunity to earn both the Fire Fighter I and II certifications through the Virginia Department of Fire Programs. Due to this, students will be required to attend some training after school and on some weekends. Attendance at these sessions is mandatory for those pursuing the fire fighter certification.
