The Midlothian Police Department is gearing up to host the 30th round of its Citizen’s Police Academy. This initiative has had a significant run thus far, and the department is eager to further enhance what has already been deemed a popular and engaging program by the locals. The Academy is set to unfold across ten Thursday evenings, from 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm, commencing on September 5 and drawing to a close on November 21, with a small recess slotted for Halloween festivities, according to the Midlothian Police Department.
The opportunity is a wide-open door for those living or laboring in Midlothian, Texas, and is also accessible to youths of 16, given they come bearing parental authorization. Held at the Midlothian Police Department headquarters located at 1150 North Highway 67, Suite 300, Midlothian, Texas 76065, the sessions promise a series of enlightening encounters with the finer points of police work, covering spheres from Law, Crime Prevention, and Investigations to Traffic, Crime Scene Processing, Departmental Procedures, and both Lethal and Non-Lethal Firearms training and orientation. The program aims to provide citizens with a rounded perspective on police procedures and foster strong community ties with the law enforcement body.
