Tomorrow, Commissioner Steven Barry (District 5), on behalf of the Escambia County Board of County Commissioners, will make a special check presentation to the Escambia County Public Schools Foundation for two new career academies: the Escambia County Fire Fighter Academy at Pine Forest High School and the Escambia County Criminal Justice Academy at Escambia High School. The media and general public are invited and encouraged to attend this special event.
ECSD career academies are small, learning communities within local middle or high schools that focus on a career pathway for a two-, three-, or four-year span. Participating students develop knowledge in a given industry and, in most academies, have the opportunity to earn industry certification relevant to the career academy.
