Students selected for the spring break Youth Fire Academy will have the opportunity to participate in basic firefighting techniques, auto extrication, certification in CPR, fire extinguisher use, and live fire and physical training. Participants are selected from the secondary school program and screened by school and Fire Department personnel. We are looking for enthusiastic youth who show a willingness to learn and have fun. If that sounds like you, we encourage you to apply through your school.
Graduating students of the Youth Fire Academy can apply to become probationary Junior Firefighters with Mission Fire Rescue Service. Once Junior Firefighters reach the age of 18 and have successfully completed the required curriculum of NFPA 1001 Firefighter 1 and First Responder training, they will be encouraged to participate with the ongoing applications of Paid-on-Call members of the department.
