The new school year is still a week away, but the future of firefighting is already in motion! Our dedicated students in the ACE Center at Hermitage Firefighting program are showing up early to be fitted for their gear. They're not just getting ready for class; they're answering a critical call.
Across the country, communities are facing a serious shortage of firefighters. This isn't just about jobs; it's about public safety and the heroes who protect our neighborhoods. By taking this first step and committing to this rigorous training, these students are entering a vital pipeline that will help fill this national void. They're not waiting for the bell to ring—they're already suiting up to become the next generation of life-savers.
