Yesterday the county announced it
will offer first responders training in
its high schools.

The classes will allow students
who are interested to take the class
and become certified emergency medical
technicians and firefighters, while
earning up to 12-credits for college.

The new cirriculum will be
offered starting the fall 2005.

County officials say its a
"win-win" situation.

It will bring more volunteers
into the county's volunteer-based
rescue services and it will help
students get a head-start in a career
while giving back to their community.
