If you haven't heard what a Citizen Police Academy is or entails here are a few highlights:
* Metro Police Officers volunteer to conduct
training sessions on various aspects of modern day law enforcement.
* Citizens have an opportunity to ride with an
on-duty police officer.
* We go on a tour of the Outagamie County Jail and
Communication center
* Discuss and learn about the Police School Liaison
Program, Investigation procedures, Traffic law, Drunk driving arrests,
Court procedures and more...
A Citizen Police Academy gives Citizens a chance to
meet their Police Officers and vice versa. This facilitates an
understanding between both. The Citizens learn not only what the Police
do but how and why. The Officers get a chance to meet their customers
and learn what services they expect or desire.
The Citizen Police Academy is open to people who are
at least 16 years old with no criminal record. Preference will be given
to people who live or work in Little Chute, Kimberly or the Kimberly
School District.
The Academy will meet on Tuesdays from 7:00p.m. to
9:00 p.m. at the Fox Valley Metro Police Department (Little Chute
Safety
Center). The Academy meets for nine sessions with a graduation on the
last.
