Since 2011, PSA has been offered at Desert Hot Springs High School through the California Partnership Academies Program Grant. PSA is designed for students who are interested in law enforcement, firefighting, and emergency medical services and want to earn their high school diploma while earning college credit and preparing for public safety careers. There is no greater reward than knowing that when you do your job, you make a powerful impact on people's lives by enhancing the quality of life on our campus and throughout our community.
California Partnership Academies' purpose is to provide a state-school-business partnership through integrated academic and occupational training to ten-through-twelfth-grade students.
This school-within-a-school model focuses on student achievement, attendance, and program accountability, as well as a committed team of teachers, business partnerships, and post-secondary education.
