academy of fire and emergency medical services

Alachua County Fire Rescue, Gainesville Fire Rescue, Santa Fe College, and Alachua County Public Schools all work together to support this academy and these students. The students are trained as First Responders (includes earning their CPR certificate), Fire Fighter I, and also have the opportunity to dual enroll at Santa Fe College in the EMT program. As a dual-enrolled student during the senior year, students earn eleven college credits. This is an exciting academy for anyone interested in becoming a Firefighter and/or an EMT.
