Citizens Police Academy
Citizens Police Academy & Youth Police Academy
The Tomball Police Department began 2003 by inaugurating
the Citizen’s Police and Youth Police Academy. This joint
effort, combined with the cooperation and involvement with
the community, resulted in two separate academies that
achieved great success. The inception of both academies was
the result of much determination and hard work by many of
the officers and personnel of the Tomball Police Department.
All academy graduates were provided with instruction,
demonstration and hands on guidance in many of the following
law enforcement activities:
- Felony and “routine” patrol stops
- Crime scene investigation
- Building clearing
- Simunitions and live fire house activities
- F.A.T.S. (Fire Arms Training Simulator)
- DWI scenarios
- School related crime
- Trauma in Law Enforcement
- Dispatch function and Communications
- Accident investigations
This inclusion of the community into what the Tomball
Police Department Officer’s and personnel experience, on a
daily basis, was a worth while and fulfilling opportunity,
for both the Departmental personnel and the community. The
response has been extremely positive, and the program for
both the adults and the youth in the community has been
rewarding.
