KEARNEYSVILLE — Jefferson County Schools partnered with Jefferson County Emergency Communications to start a new career and technical education program called EmComm.
The EmComm program started last year when Ian Hillman, director of responsive education, started talking with Edwina Benites, previous director of the Jefferson County Development Authority and current county administrator. During their conversation, they wanted to identify needs in the community and be responsive by finding ways for students to begin working toward careers that fulfill those needs.
