The Annual Redlands Emergency Services Academy is offering career experience to the senior class. For those who are interested in a career in firefighting, law enforcement or emergency medical services, there is an informational meeting being held on Jan. 31 in Citrus Valley’s Career Center from 9:30 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. and in Redlands East Valley’s Career Center from 11:10 a.m. to 11:40 a.m.

Students who are interested in the program can sign up on the class of 2019 google classroom. There are very limited spots for the trip. The academy dates are July 10-17. This trip allows students to further explore careers in the field of emergency services fully funded.

On the trip, seniors will do real-life rescue scenarios, like “live” fire and water rescue drills, which will allow them to experience the reality of those jobs.
