The Nacogdoches Police Department will host a Citizens’ Police Academy. The Academy is a twelve week program designed to educate citizens about the Nacogdoches Police Department and Law Enforcement.
“The program takes an in-depth look into law enforcement, and specifically the policies and procedures of the Nacogdoches Police Department”, said Sgt. Brett Ayres, who serves as the coordinator for the program. “It is designed to educate citizens on why we make certain decisions or handle situations in a particular way.”
Applications will be accepted starting May 27, and will stop taking applications July 1. The program begins on August 23 with graduation scheduled for November 8. Classes will be held at the police department from 6 pm to 8 pm each Monday night. There is no cost to attend and the class is limited to 25 students.
