Durham Tech student Juan-Pablo Quintanilla Ha began his interest in the Fidelity Scholars program during high school, when a guidance counselor shared information on the program.
“After learning about the Fidelity program from a high school counselor of mine, I researched the program and found I was a fit because of my Latino-Asian descent, but also because of my academic excellence and it helped that I am a go-getter,” said Ha, who was one of the Durham Tech students selected for the program. “I was then all about the program and how it could help me get a college education.”
Ha saw Fidelity’s program as a way to receive money for college, but quickly learned it was much more.

Blake Whitt, now the Director of Public Safety Training for Durham Tech, completed the College’s Fire Academy in 2012 and now is looking to bring the program back.
“The Fire Academy was an amazing experience for me,” Whitt said. “I still tell people about it today. The amount of experience I gained, whether it was a specific way to make an impact at the fire department or an overall life lesson, was unbelievable.”
