The Arlington Police Department recently announced the opening of its High School Citizen Police Academy (HSCPA) for this semester, targeting a swath of the student population from Arlington ISD, Charter Schools, and Private Schools, to even those who are home-schooled, so if you've ever wondered about the inner workings of your local police force, here's your chance to dive in.
According to a social media post by the Arlington Police Department, the program will offer insights into various aspects of police work, such as SWAT operations, crime scene investigations, and accident reconstruction, plus more and it's open for all eligible high schoolers, they need only to scan a QR code to get the registration process started, with the academy sessions scheduled to commence in late February, convening on Mondays for those who make the cut.
For those who may have lingering queries or seek additional information beyond what's outlined on the social platforms, there's a direct line provided to the academy's orchestrator: Sgt. Leslie Arnott can be contacted at her email address, [email protected], for clarifications, deeper explanations, or to satiate the curiosity of potential future participants of the High School Citizen Police Academy.
