Falls Church High School alumni Kyle Jackson recently completed Volunteer Recruit Training with the Prince William County Department of Fire and Rescue. Jackson went through a seven-month program of strenuous physical and mental training that only 13 out of 32 trainees were able to achieve.

While showing his commitment to training, Jackson was also chosen by his peers to receive the Prince William County Regional Chamber of Commerce Public Safety Leadership Award.

Jackson is a student at George Mason University, where he is majoring in business and biology. He plans to be an emergency room physician.
