Public Service
The Academy of Public Service is divided into two different divisions, Criminal Justice and Teachers Assistants. The second top academy at Turner Tech the Public Service Academy serves the community. Both academic programs are joined in yearly competitions against other schools in the Florida Public Service Association (FPSA). In the 2008-09 competition Steven Ramos, a senior in the Public Service Criminal Justice program, served as State President. That same year, Turner Tech Criminal Justices students placed 3rd in top school for the Criminal Justice program, while the Teacher Assistant program placed 5th. Currently Ms. Day Dawning Rawls oversees the Criminal Justice Program for the high school students and helps advance their fields in the Criminal Justice program. The Criminal Justice Program also offers many opportunities for high school seniors, from internships with the Miami-Dade Correctional Facility to becoming a City of Miami Police Explorer or a City of North Miami Beach police explorer. The Public Service is one of the best academies for students ready to take on the Criminal Justice or Teacher Assistant fields.
